Big Sow
Shot this big sow this morning with my .22-250, Texas Heart Shot, 35gr Varmint Bullet, running through heavy cover, in a Thunderstorm, and it was so dark, I had to time my shot with the Lightning Flashes so I could see the crosshairs, and yes, all of this is BS! Except I did shoot her with my .22-250 this morning, in the head, from about 40 yds, broadside.

First thing I've killed with my SPS and just about the biggest sow I have ever seen.

Just felt the need to post it, and BS you guys a little bit.

May the dogs of war lift their legs on those who annoy you!

We used to call her "Miss Smartypants," now we just call her "Airhead."

Thanks, Guys.
I didn't have too much luck with the deer in East Texas this past season. Only got a doe and a spike.
So I'm taking it out on the hogs!
This one was bedded down under some trees with about 20 others yesterday morning. Wind shifted, some of them smelled me and most of them bolted.
She was the last to leave, trying to locate the danger, and I had time to take a knee and drill her.
Gotta love'em.
