Back in December during deer season I was having hogs come in and ruin my hunting so I started taking an AR and a .243 with me.
The AR for the pigs ..(before someone ask)
Range was 85 yards to feeder
One afternoon a sounder came in and it had 3 good sized sows and a bunch of small piglets
I had been shooting the big ones only thinking it should orphan the small ones and leave them open to predators
I had coyotes and bobcats like crazy this winter
That day I lit into them good..
I dropped 2 where they stood and I knew I hit a 3rd one solid but couldn't find it or a good blood trail.
These were 55 gr SP bullets
Well yesterday while walking the land I came up a trail I haven't been on in a year
Thick brush..
I found that SOB...75 yards down hill in amongst that brush.
I was happy to know I got her then I cried a little thinking of the needless suffering it went thru laying there alone dying
Well...I lied about that part ..lol
Good riddance
