    I agree with this , but we talk abouth fast killing and ethics.

    If i had a bad shoot on the Hog only one or two inches below a bullet like a hollow point will increase

    enough power to kill the hog in seconds - if i had a full penetration or not.

    With a smaller bullet - and we talk abouth 1/10 of weight the animal will suffer a very long time.

    What i want to say is - those people dont do pest control - they harm a living creature.

    Cruelty to animals like i say before.

  • What is the point of shooting hogs with such a small round? To prove you can? If you really want to prove something, why not use a slingshot? I have no problem with the pest control.  Feral hogs are a problem, for sure - but a responsible shooter uses the right tool for the job. This is like trying to frame a house with a child's hammer. Sure, you could do it - but why?

    Buy a bigger gun.

  • @buffmedic01 rly?

  • @2ndarymotion .17 hmr is a devastating round despite its size. I kill lots of feral hogs on my property with mine. One shot one kill. I would be willing to venture that I could take out a nice sized buck with my .17 hmr as well but I have my .308 for them. Pest round for pest. why waste expensive ammo when you get the job done for less.

  • Being from Texas, it doesn't matter what you kill hogs with, as long as they're dead!!

  • For all you 17 HMR haters out there, look up a video by Outdoor Adventures entitled, "Piglet Headshot - Double Kill." It may show up in the sidebar of this video.

    The 17 round is EXTREMELY accurate in low wind conditions, and with proper placement, can drop a hog of any size.

    If you can't shoot well, get yourself a larger caliber, but if you are patient, and have your 17 dialed in, GO FOR IT!

    Nice first shot!!!

  • great shot on the first boar, the shot on the second was way to far forward you need to visualize the brain within the head think in 3d the brain is suspeded with in the target and the angle to the brain chabges as the angle to the head dose.... you picked you spot beween the eyes but unrtunaly as the pig turned you didnt compensate you point of impact other than that great hunt man i just bought a heavy barrel 17 hmr savage thats gonna see alot of use.

  • Nice video.. Check out my hog hunt video and subscribe if you like.

  • yea your game is to large for caliber... get yoourself a good bolt gun in .223 and have a blast....

  • AND FOR ALL YOU P.E.T.A. MEMBERS; PLEASE, GET YOU HEADS OUT OF YOUR BUTTS AND START EATING SOME HICKORY SMOKE BACON... THEN YOU WILL KNOW WHY WE HUNT...

  • OH CRAP I FORGOT; I SHOULD KILL ROACHES WITH A TOOTH PICK, IN THAT WAY I WON'T MISS WITH A SANDAL....

  • AND THE POINT IS??? IF YOU CAN'T SHOOT FOR SHIT WITH A .17, YOU WILL SUCK EVEN MORE WITH A .308 AND RUIN SOME GOOD MEAT.
