    My cousin hunt hogs in the woods on the ground only with a 22LR, but he is one of those guys that can
    ricochet shoot IE Uncle Jed style.

    My step-dad used to hunt hogs with a 22lr, however he told me if he was about to take a shot, he would be standing under a tree, in case he had to escape from a pissed off hog.
    Whenever the legislators endeavor to take away and destroy the property of the people, or to reduce them to slavery under arbitrary power, they put themselves into a state of war with the people, who are thereupon absolved from any further obedience

    I suppose that one bit the dust, but I personally won't use one. I posted a story on here quite a long time ago about using my 243 on a 250lb hog. Small hogs are completely different than big ones!

    Me and my 10 year old son have shot many a hog with a ruger 10/22. Most were head shots at about 40 yards from a tree stand. Dropped them like a terd from a tall horse.
