Bumped into the farmer whos land I go shooting on yesterday, he was saying he is having some pig problems on his land. They come out of the forest on his boundary at this time of the year and root up his paddocks.
So, god help me, I dont want to buy yet another rifle, but as I have spent my life on small game, I really dont know the best calibre for knocking over pigs at I guess up to a couple of hundred metres if needed.
I have a few ideas, but would be interested in hearing what others use and think is good for the job. They wont be shot for food, it is pest control (cause Im not carrying the heavy fuckers a couple of kms out to the road). He does have from time to time deer and goats, so if I do decide to purchase, it should be pretty universal.
Realistically, it may not be worth the cost yet to do, I see to scope the place out for activity yet. But would like to do a cost analyses.
Thanks for any ideas, info, tips from members of our great community here.
Cheers
