Set up over a feeding site yesterday to see about eliminating a hog or two that I'd seen on the game camera. After about an hour, with no piggies coming in to play, I decided to call it quits. As I was gathering my stuff together to make my exit, I took one last look and there stood this old boy (that had never appeared on the camera!) rather nervously dancing around, vacuuming up corn as fast as he could while still glancing around. He was 98 yards away, and my 300 B.O. took him down with one shot. Tore up his innards pretty well, including the top half of his heart, and the bullet did not leave the body cavity. Load was fueled by H110 under 110gr Nosler Varmageddon. I'm done for the deer season, and will focus all my efforts on hog eradication. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2018/11/full-54774-169347-12pointdown.jpg)
