SeanMurphy265 Project #4 Smoker!

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.
