Raven .25 auto, chrome plated (the chrome helps with the ballistics). Walther PPK in .380 auto. Guaranteed hog stoppers. I recommend strongly that Democrats try using those guns to hunt Texas boars.
If you need a reference to close the deal, use my name. /evil grin
I had a Super Blackhawk just like that except mine was blued.
It probably would have been a good choice for steel chickens etc. but it was really too long for hunting.
A six inch barrel would have been just about right. A 7 1/2 inch barrel would also have been OK.
The Remington pump in 35 Whelen is excellent for hog hunting.
Marlin .35 will work fine on anything up to a black bear.
Jett Webb of North Carolina and this 500-pound hog. He shot him with a .308
Any select fire rifle Ted Nugent uses from a helicopter to hunt them will do.
I like the .308, but I go pig killing with a Ruger mini 14.
It is all in the shot placement. I killed a 400 pounder with a shot just behind the ear. Sow dropped like a sack of potatoes and never got up.
Back in the 60s, a friend and I took a 600 lb. sow to the stock auction in Geneva, Alabama. I remember a couple of guys telling us that we had let her get too large which we already knew.
She wasn’t old and actually sold for a good price. That was a long time ago, but she didn’t look as large as that 500 lb. one in the picture.
I was thinking that A-10’s (and C-130 gunships) would work well on ISIS/ISIL columns.
I loaned my 760 to a friend, he says a boar charged at him, galoop, galoop, galoop, galoop, and he bore down on it & fired. Bang! Galoop, galoop, tumble tumble tumble until it ended up at his feet. Dead.
I’ve since rebarreled it to 22” in .308 & added a scope. More genteel.
youre right,i’m sure we would love to see Puff work over those shiny Toyota trucks, but are you comparing wild hogs to ISIS ?
A case could be made.
well...you have my vote.
since you’ll be in charge of flight ops, please give us a heads up so we can have the orville r. ready.
My brother has a raven 25 I’m sure he would be happy to loan any Democrat that wants to go boar hunting. And I’ll buy the ammo.
Rem 700 30/06 180gr with my ND-3 light attached to the scope. If I’m close enough I use my .17HMR to the ear hole.
44 mag - yes!
But it needs proper ammo. I recommend 325 grain gas checks. Kicks hard, but I get pass through on a 300 pound hog.
