Wild Boar Hunting with Air Pistol

(1/5) > >>

NOMADIC PIRATE:
The recent Heavy rains got the wallows going, so yesterday I when to one of my old Bowhunting set ups, perfect for the shorter range of pistol hunting.

got there by 2 P.M. and only had to wait 45 minutes before this nice young boar came down the trail, he immediatly got into the wallow and started doing his normal hog things  ;D i had the scope on him for a while, he gave me a couple of good shots but I passed for the best I could get, he than finally faced me, put his head down to drink, that's when I squeezed the trigger, the Pistol jumped in my hand and after when I looked the hog was still ( only for a few seconds  ;) ), ......lights out.

I was shooting a .357 conical 105gr bullet

Stoker:
Cool..nice pistol
Thanks Leroy

Keenan:
Right on Manny, I've been researching the big bore air riffles lately.  I love the air guns and love my 22 NP XL but want a big bore someday. ;D

NOMADIC PIRATE:

Manny Thanks, Lulyn and I are long overdue for a trip to your area. ;D  We have been thinking along that line of thought when things on the home front settle a little.
