This sounder of wild pigs had been hitting a local cattle rancher's protein feeders. The pigs would come in almost nightly and raid the expensive feed costing the rancher time refilling the feeders and money buying more feed. This is one of many examples why feral hogs are primarily a nuisance animal, and need to be managed accordingly.

Awesome! A little quicker on the trigger, and more bacon in the freezer!

He needs to build a large pen trap with the creep feeder inside it and get the whole herd.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

No tannerite. It just wounds the hogs, scatters them, and provides a protective smoke screen. It is a really bad idea for hunting hogs.
It will also harm feeders and such.

Agreed on not using tannerite. Cruelty is cruelty.

I would love to have that many lined up at one time. Wonder how many a 7mm 180 gr. leaving at 2950 fps will go through?

I was thinking something similar. The most 100+ lbrs I have seen dropped with one shot is 3, but 4 for smaller pigs, but can't recall the calibers.
