MyWild Pork Supermarket

Well the hard work is now paying off boys.
Setting the bait and studying the trailcam, I go to work this arvo.
I'm set up in my snipers hide. God I'm bored. I start txting home, checking facebook etc.
I've been there about an hour and I'm bored shitless, put my phone down and look up, I think I see a little black pig.
I sort my shit out, peruse the landscape and there's now about ten, fark!
Heart starts racing. Calm down ya poofter. Settle down and start lining up one through the scope, pre-checked and zeroed at 100 yards. So many chubby arsed pigs it's hard to choose. I line one up and squeeze one off before I overthink things. Bang, Straight through the engine room and she's down.

Well done!:cool:

Looks like it would singe up well for crackeling:thumbsup:

Very nice :)

Absolutely brilliant. Don't you love it when a plan comes together?

Well done cool looking pig

Great result and nine to go!:thumbsup:

Awesome stuff, gotta love a lookout spot with 3g coverage to peruse the forum while you wait for a few victims.

Good on Ya Johnino :thumbsup:

Now the trick is to resist over shooting the place.

Pigs learn quick and will start avoiding the spot if they get shot at each time they go there.

Feed them up, when you can.

Vary your movements

And Harvest the Bounty and enjoy.

Cheers
Pete

You can have a rock concert in ya head while shooting pigs! Doesn't get any better than that!:cool:

Awesome! , cant wait to get out there and do it for myself :thumbsup:

Great work on the porker.Is that a Howa rifle, what calibre-bullet did you use & diatance? either way it's dead & be nice eating, ----not many pigs around us as the outside hunters & poachers clean them out quick. would be interesting to see how the 260 Rem would go on a big porkine.

A .260 would be fine.

Good shit man well done

Remington Sendero 7mm Magnum. Distance 100 metres. Yeah your 260 would be fine especially handloading with something like Amax

yeah nah soft cock. I remember when I was a keen young Pig hunter----------- I could buy two pies for $2.00

No idea what it weighed. The more experienced forum members told me anything rotten works. I used maize and milk sitting outside in a lidded bucket for a month. Spread it around where they'd been rooting and chucked some in the trees for the wind to do it's work. Good luck.
