But it worked.
Shot this little boar at about 20 yards this morning. Put a 325 hardcast .45 just behind and below his eye. To be honest, I had forgotten I had the heavy loads in the gun...kinda surprised us both. Laughing
He's already soaking in Mojo in the crockpot. Wink

Don't worry, you will soon. They are spreading out of control throughout the US. We consider them "shoot on sight" pests at our deer lease.

Same here...the TWRA has pretty much obligated you to shoot one if you see it. I want to hunt them, but at the same time I don't want them devastating the local ecology.
