I've killed two hogs with that caliber, it works. I was using an Bubba'd SKS and Winchester PowerPoints.

I use a Ruger Mini 30 and love it. 5 in last 3 weeks and many more last year .
Using a Leupold pig-plex1-4 and get them on run. I have a Harden Arms 7.62 x39 Upper AR use brass shells work great also, but prefer the Ruger mini 30 |

I've tried it before with my friends bone stock SKS. Generally got good results inside 100m. This was with surplus ammo, nothing special.

Taken three hogs with that caliber. 2 fell over dead, one ran 5-10 yards then collapsed. I am going next month and taking my Sig 556R. I do use good ammo (Federal Fusion), although at the 50-100 yards I shoot I am not sure it matters.

Hogs Fall to 7.62x39
My experience is that inside 75 yds, it a gem. Past that you better have a stationary target. Ammo used in vid was Russian hollow point steel case. The two big hogs were both smashed with one shot. They fell off in the weeds DRT. |

Do you have daylight pics of the dead hogs? Wounds?

I think the only pic's I had died with my windows computer but I think I killed 3 pigs. Personally I think the .30/30 does a better job. My SKS does not get carried very much at all.

haven't killed a hog with it, but the old Prvi round tip SP ammo was deadly on deer.
