If I can find a place to hunt, I would like to take my son (10 years old) on a wild pig hunt this spring in Florida. I plan on him using a heavy load (105 gr) in a .243 while I back him up. If I do hunt along with him instead of just accompany him, I'd rather take a bow but I'd still like to have backup.
Has anyone used a .45 to stop a pig? I know they can get ornery especially if you don't shoot them dead enough. I would like to carry my .45 auto for backup, but won't bother if it won't do any good on them. Has anyone tried this? Will I have to leave my bow at home and take a 12 ga. with slugs or my 7mm mag?
