Waiting on a smoking PIG right now myself. Glad you got it finished off.
Me too! Now I've been trying to kill a wild hog (small) to give it a good run!
My place is OVERRUN with wild hogs!Quote:

They seem to migrate back and forth between Fulton, MS and Amory, MS along the Tenn Tom Waterway. They hang around for 2-3 weeks and then wonder north to Fulton. I hunt the Canal Section Wildlife Management Area. This was all river bottom hardwoods that our government had to purchase when they put dams along the Tombigbee River. They can ruin a hunting area, they will eat all the acorns and leave the deer little to eat. This is my first experience with wild hogs its hard to believe how they wipe out the woods.
Thurmond could confirm, but I thought I read the problem is so bad that in Texas at least hunting hogs is legal 24/7/365, male or female. Crop destruction is a problem, of course, but they also spread disease to livestock by defecating in water supplies.
What type of round do hunters use on hogs?
It seems that AR15 rifles have become popular in 223 & 308. Hornady has a 223 round that will take a deer down, and is becoming quite popular; especially at night. There is a company in South Georgia called Jager Pro who specializes in hog removal. The provide AR15 in 308 with night vision optics, and do their hunting at night. Their purpose is to remove as many as possible because farmers want them gone! I'm saving my pennies for an AR, but I am going to use my 30-06 and 35 whelen. Any single shot, breech loading, 30 caliber or larger, rifle with a hammer is considered a primative weapon in Mississippi. From what I have read 3 hogs can turn into 200 hogs in 3 years.
