Went for a sit and as I drove in, I saw a sounder of about 30 across the fence on the neighbor's land so didn't take a shot. Got set up, feeder spun at 8, pig arrived at 8:15 and hit the dirt at 8:20 with a .22-250 in the brain pan. Weighed 170.

It looks so peaceful lying there.

Nice work.

Cute little feller.

That is the way they look the best, Good Job.

Since the first of the year, I've trapped or shot about 25 and only 3 sows. I've had pictures of sows at the feeders, but just not when I'm there. I'm feeling a bit discriminated against because I'm an equal-opportunity pig killer!

Not only that you need to cull the flock by killing more sows.

Solo pigs get shot, regardless if boar or sow. If a sounder comes in, I'll pick a sow if I can.

Nice healthy pig ... could you verify weight? post said 170?

Yep--170 on my scales

Same place, same rifle, different boar, same result. 188 lbs

Good work. Those pigs are eating well.

I once owned an almost identical rifle except it was stainless with a wood stock. Traded it for a 20 gauge Winchester 101. What was I thinkin?
