cool rig. slugs=short tracking jobs. I like the reduced power slugs, they don't beat me up as bad as normal loads.

You've got yourself a real Hog Hammer, Sapper!
Go forth and do some damage to 'em and let us know all about it!

When I shotgun pigs I use 00 buckshot. Pair that shotgun and thermal with some 00 buck and you could wipe out generations of pigs in one night!

Why can’t you use a rifle unless guided? Or did I misunderstand?

Definitely a cool set up. Why not use a muzzleloader for better range, aside from the obvious lack of follow ups?

Oh heck yeah. That's just crying for some krylon.
Will the thermal hold up?
One shot is all it should take.

Will the thermal hold up? just zeroed it in 3 shots so far so good To add on to that I got an email from Pulsar after bugging them that said their thermals have no recoil restriction and if there is an issue it will be covered. Gonna try and get it bloody tonight.

Just stole my first soul with the shotgun and thermal setup and he ain’t no little boar either. I’ll post better pics and chest measurement in a bit.

That's awesome. I never wooda thunk of thermal on a shotgun. Obviously, it's working.

Nice setup. That should definitely leave a mark!
I have two unwritten rules: 1. 2.
