LOL not doing very well on the turkey hunting & gave it up on this stand. But the pigs seem to have multiplied in the last few weeks. Had 15-20 come in Saturday morning and dropped 2 with head shots and sent a 3rd screaming down the road with a Texas Heart shot . That was with a Tikka Bolt gun wish I had brought my AR10.

Even after a de-brainer head shot, mine always flop around and end up in the mud puddle under the feeder.

Good work with a bolt gun. I hate to admit it but I miss having pigs on our new place. In llano we would have pigs to hunt year round and we have yet to see one one our new place north of Brady. I know they are a nuisance and tear up land but it sure is nice to have some target practice after a days work during the off season

I know they are a nuisance and tear up land but it sure is nice to have some target practice after a days work during the off season I'm in that area as well, but a bit north of the river, and I've had a few pigs show on cameras, but I haven't seen one on the property since we purchased 2 years ago. On cameras, I may see one or two a month. I Feel blessed not to have them.

Heard you shooting Steve - figured you got skunked on the corn buzzards and downed some more pigs!

Awesome job Steve! How many is that for you this year - 1,000,002? LOL Its that Tikka T3X stainless/fluted .308 that Phyllis got me for Xmas you just wave it in the general direction of Pigs and they just fall down  It don't seem to be picky on ammo . It shoots very nice tight groups and is a joy to carry . Its my first Tikka and will not be my last
