Call Iraq and ask the men fighthing for our country what they carry to shoot the enemy with. Anyone who has to shoot a little deer with a .300 has something else to prove. I think its safe to say that any type of projectile "can" kill a animal or human. How many rocks from a sling shot have killed people.
Anyone can own a fancy gun but can you shoot it ?

So if thats the case, why is it that "real men" must use a 300 mag to shoot little bitty deer and some states don't allow anything less than a 243 for legal game?  You can "fix" STUPID......so they won't have kids and TEXAS NOT INCLUDED!!!

If you thought that was good, you'll love this. I just hope I get a warning first instead of going straight to ban camp. This thread may make 7 pages after all!

Be careful summoning the Killer. There is a reason he has that name. Fork, I'd better lay low for a while. What goes around comes around and I'm sure someone here can put bushy eyebrows on that video clip

I think van proves it any round can and will kill a pig as long as the man behind the gun can put a good shot on it
One side note, NEVER put an armadillo in a paper feed bag.

I tried going as Jimmy Johnson one year, mimicking "The Hair"... It was a disaster! Imitation is the highest form of flattery.

I'll help get this to 7 pages for djones.... To answer the OP, YES a .223 will kill a hog as will any cartridge out there To the people who want to know why someone would hunt with a .223... as long as I can do this with it I will hunt with it  djones is right tho... once those bastages start running especially at night, the .223 is not an optimal round P.S. the 100 facts about djones = epic and he is the master of photoshop

I have killed at least 40 pigs with my .17hmr. If you put it right behind the ear they go down every time. You do not need a big gun to kill a hog. Most of the time when I am riding around filling feeders all I have is a .22 and that will kill them with proper shot placement.
