Anyone ever kill a pig with a shotgun with an 18th inch barrel?

no, though I do have a "tactical" 1100 with an 8rd tube and 18.5" barrel..

how close are you to them?
I wouldn't use buckshot past about 25 yards
good slugs would be better

I use a 6.8 AR, faster followups, extremely accurate and can reach out further

They make "Hog Shot" now for shotguns, but I have never tried them out. And yes a Tactical shotgun would drop a hog depending on range.

I have with a pistol grip 12g slugged out, I hit him on the run off the quad about 40yds out in the dark that was one kill I will never forget

After shooting numerous kinds of buckshot, so far the best and tightest pattern was Federal tactical buckshot

ive seen a hog or two go down with buckshot.... just ask "mossberg man"

That is what I like, LE127-00.

I also kill hogs with Remingtons Wingmaster HD loads. Load # RW12HD & RW1235VT are good pig killers and will rip a coyote into pieces. The only down side is the cost; nearly $4 per shot.

I kill 2 hogs one day dove hunting with 7 1/2 bird shot, but i waited til they were about 10 feet from me.

how far would you say he was when i shot in a moving side-by-side? ran no more than 30 yards and dropped dead.

Been a while since I've shot a hog with a shotgun.

...but I have shot one...

Damn Djones you killed a hog with just about everything

if ya need a driver/shooter contact brandon a for my refrences and i don't need one of them i cant hit crap tube extenders

I witnessed my cousin run a coyote down in a Kubota side by side and shoot him in the back of the head with bird shot as we had been dove hunting. DRT

lol mossberg, and ya, i can vouch for his shooting skills from a moving mule lol. id say that hog was 10 or 15 yards out when u shot, maybe more. and u shot him in the gut, still not sure what vital u got.

his kubota must be faster than mine!! that or yotes arent as fast as i thought.

Can't tell you which but I saw it and was shocked.

So has anyone ever used the KO knockout slugs? Ive shot them pretty accurately with a standard shotgun barrel but never with the 18 incher. I wonder what the effective range would be to take a hog.

you have also seen me shoot a coon with a 30-30 (1 shot 1 kill) from a moving mule.

the federal flite-control wad give me good patterns

I have killed a pile of pigs with Federal 20 ga #3 buckshot. Out to 30 yards I'd take a 12 ga with 00 over any weapon that I could legally get my hands on. Just like shooting big slow birds...
