Ultimate Hog Gun

If money were no object, what would be your ultimate hog setup?

just finished my hog build last week.
savage model 11 with 20" threaded bull barrel
boyd varmint thumbhole stock
weaver 2.5 x 10 44 illuminated scope with quick detach rings for iron sight close range shooting
.875 4 chamber muzzle break

that muzzle brake looks cool.

The first is a 16" ARP 6.8
and the second is a 12.5" 458 Socom

I want an RPG, but am having a hard time finding one. For now, it remains the JP LRP 07 with the Night Force and night vision equipment.

I'm really happy with this setup but I know there are better. 22-250 with Kill Light.

Tikka T3 Stainless 308

I like that. What cal.?

I have a AAC 300 blackout with a YHM 30 cal can. Only thing I'd add would be some thermal optics.

How do you like that 458?

How does that light work out for you? That's something I've been looking at.

and a whole lota 000buck

Sako 25-06 with Leupold 4-12x50 VXR (illuminated reticle) and Wicked Hog Light.

Unfortunately, it's a hog virgin (so far), but I'm trying again this week. Two shots, two deer this winter (me & grandson).

I have both the Wicked and XLR250 lights. The Wicked is a bit brighter but both will light up a tree line well over 100 yards away good enough to pick your spot on the animal.

That's super cool. I'm definitely going to have to get one of those lights. I usually shoot a .223 AR or .308 bolt rifle for hogs but I've been thinking about a .25-06.

I think an AR10 or FN SCAR in .308 is just about the ultimate hog gun. Put a Thermal or NV on top and you could cause some DJones style carnage.

I agree, I think I'm going to try to find an R-25. I don't know if I'll do a thermal though. I'm mad at em but probably not that much!

The 458 is a great hog gun. I like the 300 gr TTSX and the 405 gr jsp. Its great in the brush. I have shot several hogs through some pretty thick stuff. This is my second 458. I have a 16" carbine and this 12.5" pistol. I use the pistol more. There is almost no velocity loss with the pistol.

If money were no option a tussey custom or wilson 6" long slide 45 win mag with all the bells and whistles.

its a 308

Really like my kill light. Very happy with it

Where did you get that kill light clamp?

Are you crazy? Bringing in a bull barrel to a hog hunt. It's heavy... Thought I was the only one that hunts with a bull barrel. Mine is roughly 14lbs. We both crazy lol. All we need now are cans to muffle out death:)

Now that's what I'm talkin about

Glad y'all like lugging the heavy ones around, kinda like me...



My .308 is around 12 lbs. when hog-ready. Add a 'can and the weight will be north of, well...ridiculous. I really should get it threaded, though.

my current rig, also have a POF 6.8 with N750 installed:





I use an L3 Thermal-Eye X150 thermal monocular for spotting...

but my ultimate rig would be a 60hz high resolution thermal scope and the thermal monocular for spotting

nice WC rig

thanks...upgraded a few things since the pic, namely a Luna Optics IR Laser..

im just fine lugging around the bull barrel... i have a kill light on my 7-08 but with that 30 mil new scope i have to buy a new mount

I use Grendel ARs w/ T60 ATWS Thermals. So far no one has gotten up. The next acquisition will be ARs in .375/308 for hoggin and more redily available reloading components.

You guys aren't fooling around with your hog killin!

some awesome weapons right here
