They are built super heavy duty.
Fill the lower black portion up with 40 pounds of gravel and then fill the upper ball with 100 pounds of corn. Hogs knock it around getting the kernels to dribble out the holes. Holes are reinforced with metal tubes to keep squirrels and coons from messing them up. Once hogs get on them they stay for an hour or more knocking them around. Deer don't mess with them either. Saves a lot of corn as 100 pounds last an entire month, compared to my 10 pound corn corn pipes that get emptied out completely in 10-15 minutes, corn lasts longer and hogs stay longer. Win-Win! |

I had just left the house two minutes earlier and when I raised the rifle to shoot the hog both lenses on the ACOG were fogged over from the oppressive humidity.
We had 18" of rain in June after a terrible six month drought and so far everyday in July has been heavy duty thunderstorms with relentless deluges. The rain does turn on the hogs though, rooting all over the place. |

The lower is a Knights Armament KAC-15 registered SBR receiver, the upper is an Alexander Arms 11” cerokoated 6.5mm Grendel.
http://www.shopalexanderarms.com/AR-15_Uppers-_6_5_Grendel_11_SBR_Complete_Upper.html It is a lightweight tack driving hog killing hammer. I also use a 16” Alexander Arms Tactical Grendel. http://www.shopalexanderarms.com/AR-15_Rifles-6_5_Grendel_Tactical_Complete_Rifle.html Both have 4X-32 ACOG LED with Truijicon RMRs redot for day optics and I swap the FLIR T-70s back and forth between them. |
