300 lb boar that charged...

Thought you might like this...it is a big boar I shot this year in south Texas. Hit him through the base of the lungs with an 85gr triple shock that penetrated to the far side shield plate. My hunting buddy went into the brush with me to find him(we went in too soon) when this thing turned and charged...my friend unloaded a clip from his 40 of golden sabre before it had the good grace to lay down and die. We did a little autopsy and retrieved some of the bullets....

Great story Mitchell! Can you repost the pics of the hog but in a larger format?

Did you weigh him, or was that an estimated weight?

We weighed him with my game scales...he was just under 305lbs.
