I had posted this up on LSB. I know that there are a lot of common members here, and there, but wanted to share these pics and this vid with some on here whose posts and info helped me, but who might not otherwise see it. Took this hog on my property on 4/7/15. Approx 75 yd shot. DPMS Recon .308, Xsight 5-18, UNV20IR. MONTHS of planning, and failed attempts. Finally got one. Girth measured 57". Calculates to about 374 lbs.

Hope the pics and vid upload ok.
