View Quote I hate it when that happens, just makes you want to declare War. How tall was the gate? |

That gate is the weak spot, only 4 feet tall, rest of pen is 6 feet....

Yeah,the FLIR train pulled into my backyard and dropped off another load of 500 big ass hogs into the swamps on my property a while back, it took me about five months of continuous staging with many many long lonely nights waiting to run into this one, and then suddenly there he was in my FLIR T-70 thermal weapon scope!
Maybe someone can tell me the proper way how it is done and clinically dissect each and every photo telling me all about it? |

In fact, here is a cool staged IR NV game cam photo of this boar hog a while back at one of my bigger feeders about two miles away from where I actually nailed him with one shot from the tiny HK556 SBR! I was thinking then that he looked like he would go 425 pounds, but then the internet keyboard commandos would say he's no more than 200? |

Doc, I've read this whole thread from start to finish and must agree -- best friggin' read on ARFCOM.
Thermals, hog-killin', Brevis II, and eats. Wow! I am so jelly. I must say, if I was slayin' that much pork I'd be big as a barn. Thank you! |

I say the pig is still in the BFH category. Without that nice little retriever of a tractor I bet that pig would have stayed where he lay.

View Quote Exactly my feelings a well, without the power of some diesel hydraulics he never would have made it back to the barn, and I never would have been able to handle all this by my little lonesome self out in the woods at night either. He filled two 160 quart coolers and needed the FEL to lift them too. |

View Quote Thank you, It has been a work in progress, took half a decade to get setup for night hunting these boars but has been time and energy well spent! And we DO FEED LOTS OF FOLKS, that last boar filled up two 160 quart deep sea igloos with meat, all will be eaten by many. |

My experience with the 70 grain Barnes TSX out of my 5.56 NATO rifles and SBRs is that the pill needs to be traveling 1,800 fps or greater to petal properly.
This gives me a 225 yards kill zone which is absolutely perfect for my night hog/coyote hunting activities. |

I'd love to get one like that, I'd put on the wall! Then I'd start making necklaces with the ones after it. |

They need to be ....... well use your imagination. Releasing feral pigs, or pigs at all needs to be prosecuted to the fullest.
