Instead of celebrating after the first hit, shoot again. boar can be dangerous. Always double tap and make damn sure they're dead. Some boar will keep running around like mad until they're heart is stopped. I once put 3 shots in a boards chest cavity and it was still running
i personnaly rather using a .22, but then again the kind of boars i hunted are probably not the same (place/state) or something, i went to south tex with my godfather and got 28 kills with my henry lever action .22, most kills were at about 30-50 yards though and they were spine or brain shots on hogs that were between 80 snd 350 pounds ir so
always remeber this people when a pig or any animal you just shot at expecally pigs dont be stingy with bullets or keep and close eye on em till they stop moving these tips will save you a couple of pigs.
After seeing -with my own eyes- a hog get shot from 40 yards, in the head, with .45 Colt 250 grain lead flat nose from a Uberti 1873, THEN run off like nothing happened - I am no longer comfortable shooting a hog in the noggin. They are just way to tough. Granted, the ,45 Colt was only traveling 900 fps or less, but still it's a hell of a thing to see. Respect to them hogs.
@granitecarver I dont think they're laughing at KILLING the animal fool. They're laughing out of excitement. Same way you do sometimes when you have a near death experience or get scared half to death by somebody. Its from the Adrenaline and the relief of hittin the animal. I'm sure they were far from thrill at the prospect of having to shoot it again.
LOL... it reminds me of a similar situation I suffered years ago. Shot a large pig with the 308 Win on the shoulder. The animal fell like it was struck by lightning. So I brought the rifle down and started to celebrate. Moments later my jaw dropped as I watch the pig get up and take off, just like this one. I could not believe it. The 30/30 can easily take pigs (at close range). You just have to be ready for a second shot - no matter what caliber you use. I feel for you brother.
A knowledgeable hunter will know a head (brain/spine) shot is usually the best for hogs. 30-30 is plenty powerful to kill a hog if you place your shot well. Many folks around here use their AR-15's (5.56 NATO) to kill pigs with 1 shot kills (headshots). It's shot placement that counts.
Headshot (brain/spine) = killshot, period.
And this is the United States of America, not Sweden. =)
The weakest round allowed here is 6,5 swedish mauser witch is more powerfull. Normaly bore hunters use 30-06 or 9,3x57. That is because pigs are fat and you need a big wound for them to bleed out.
Good vid. I personally use a 30-06 and shoot wild hogs in the head when possible. You just have to make sure you get a good brain shot. A heart/lung shot will kill them for sure, but they will sometimes run off unless you break their spine.
The 30-06 is legal to hunt ALL animals in the USA and your Springfield M1903 will do just fine. Ferrel hogs are not game animals like deer or elk so there aren't as many restrictions on them, but you still do need a hunting license to hunt hogs in most states.
yeah u can hunt with that gun my buddy uses his all the time on his land and we have to have a hunting license to even hunt hogs here in texas even thoguht they are pest.
Boars do that. I've seen many a boar carrion with headshots, even some with either the lower jaw or the upper jaw shot off. Obviously, they escaped the hunt and then died.
Two tips to the fellow hunter: 1- place the shot in the lungs/heart area when you have them broadside, 2- always follow up with a safety shot instead of celebrating with your camera guy :-D
Pigs have remarkably thick bone surrounding the head, hence why captive bolts etc aren't used..did you not have the capacity of thought to go for a heart shot..or do you just have a bad aim?
neck shots do it every time

well they are not in sweden and 30-30 really good gun for hunting hog maybe thats all he had too.

Apparently not, he hit the nose from 50 meters.
30-30 can of course kill a bore, but its not suited for it.

@profanum88 well i guess ppl that cant shoot shouldt use it then cuz they are very good hunting rounds
02lb72500HD 2 years ago
You can kill a bore with a .22 lr to, but its not a good choice for hunting.
profanum88 2 years ago
@profanum88 i agree its not a humane round to hunt bore with but a 5.56 or .223 is way different than a normal 22 lol
02lb72500HD 2 years ago
It is a normal .22.
But maybe you think that .22 cal means .22 lr?
