I had a coyote look like that after it met the Beretta 92 and 147gr XTP.
Left a blood trail like a ford with a blown transmission.

Unless you've seen the damage hogs can do don't judge.I would have eaten every bit of that hogs, froze the bones for soup. Or grind everything up and turn it into fish food! Not big on wasting.
now the cyoto... I would try it once
I’m not judging man, no offense, I was just thinking out loud. I know hogs can damage farmers property and game animals.Unless you've seen the damage hogs can do don't judge.
Doing what he did saves a lot of other things (Turkey, quail, fawns, etc).
Where I'm at I only get a handful at a time so I keep the meat and feed the carcasses to my hunting dogs.
No offense taken.I’m not judging man, no offense, I was just thinking out loud. I know hogs can damage farmers property and game animals.
I would probably feed the hogs to gators
I wonder what that hogs would taste like as , Whole Pit cooked. Smoke meat with hickory for 12 hours will make anything taste good. You could feed all the hungry in AmericaNo offense taken.
To bad zoos don't take them. It would be cheap meat.
you don’t think it’s ugly as a Mud duckMy bad, mine is a mark 5, with a mark2 barrel. As the mark 2 and 5 barrels are the same except that the mark 5 has machining to take a bayonet and front site. I bought the parts kit several years ago and just put it together last year.
The mark 2 barrels were cheaper, instock and I wasn't going to use a front sight.
Soooooo..... A hot 115 tac xp, hot 124 gold dot, or warm 147 xtp are about the only projectiles I would consider for this exercise. I would call each manufacturer, ask what the velocity window for each projectile is, and keep my shots within that range..... Except the Barnes and gold dot, those I would hit faster if possible, but DEFINITELY not slower.Actually this is real.
My sten is a modern pistol redo. Fires closed bolt, has an optic, has an AR pattern pistol grip as I didn't care for the original style grip at all.
The sten is a trunk gun, several different finishes, ww2 parkerized, modern pakerized, some blueing, black spray paint, ect so if it gets a scratch I won't even notice.
I'm more likely to have the sten then a proper nice hunting rifle at any given time during deer season.
Yeah I have a pristine 44 mag rifle made in the 1960s that belonged to my dad. Not a trunk gun. I prefer a 180gr HP with about 33gr of H110 and non mag rifle primer, gives me nearly 30-30 velocities.The best load for that would be a .429 bullet about 250 grains- with 21.5 gr of 2400----
Oh--- ya that's a 44 magnum!
Did you know? In general, if you go much over book max with H110 you start losing velocity and gaining recoil.Yeah I have a pristine 44 mag rifle made in the 1960s that belonged to my dad.

Note 33gr of H110 is over the max load by a few grains, so don't do it.

thats crazy! I wish FDA would ease the rules on wild animals for human consumption. That could feed so many people. BBQ pit 20’ long with hickory, some salt! BBQ sauce!They are varmints, I’d poison them if I knew it wouldn’t harm other wildlife. It doesn’t take long and it’s a lot of work just to drag them out of the trap to a location the buzzards can work them over.
