Wouldn’t you want a beefier cartridge for hunting hog?

My brother does pretty darn well with the .223 and feral pigs.
He can keep me oversupplied.

Yeah I was wondering how long it would take CNN to get around to
this subject.

Lots of guys use the AR for hogs here in TX.
There are rounds that would work better and you can get AR uppers in all kinds of calibers, but for an open shot, 5.56x45 should be sufficient.

At today’s prices I would use 5.45x39.

“Wouldnt you want a beefier cartridge for hunting hog?”
I’ve killed plenty of hogs with the .223. If you do a half-way decent bit of shot placement you’ll drop ‘em in their tracks.
Recently watched some video of a guy doing some pig hunting from a helicopter with a .223. Eight shots. Eight dead pigs.

I thought you were Jewish...have you too been seduced by bacon?
BTW, my godparents were named Jackson and were Jewish.
In fact, they named me. I didn't know Rooster was an old Jewish name.;-)

Yup, and that AR really lets you place them accurately.

Would curing feral hog meat make it safe to eat?

What would make feral pig meat unsafe to eat besides leaving it raw at room temperature for more than 4 hours? (USDA rules)
I eat the heck out of it. I follow USDA rules for handling and processing. Including curing and cooking.

Like pork.
What do you expect pigs to taste like? We've got a lot of acorns around here, so they've got a decent amount of fat, and in that way (by my book) they are better than the lean storebought crap.

Ok.
I just only see people make sausage of it and was wondering, why not Ham? or Bacon?
