It will take a lot of force to move it and would ruin more meat than a lot of rifles. That guy obviously has to much time on his hands and I can’t imagine it being accurate. So I agree with dnb...why?

Why not? He obviously didn't build it to hunt animals. Just having fun with a home made cannon.

Maybe to you. But, to each his own.

It's not realistic. You put it down bait a pile and hope a pig gets to the exact spot and is still. It will ruin any meat that may have been eatable. It's just dumb. Period.

Missed that part as I skimmed though the video. I don't see how he is going to get within range of a hog but it's his time and money.

Besides, a hog is not an animal. It's a virus that needs to be taken out by any means. slinger

Concept and engineering are awesome, but I wish he wouldn’t title or mention hunting, regardless of reason for making


Donate to TX Youth hunting program.... better to donate then to waste it in taxes

Ps it won't be hunting. Please don't refer to hunting as killing a hog just to see how badly you can destroy it. It will be hog killing and there is nothing wrong with hog killing.

Hunting is hunting for food or possibly a trophy.



After looking it up I guess sport is thrown in which would could be a very fluid word. Either way as hunters we have enough to defend without people videoing a hog getting torn in half for the shock value.

It may work....but I wouldn't feel comfortable videoing the hunt and posting it online. I would also be a bit worried about the state's definition of lawful means and methods. Is this a 'firearm' or 'archery'....and how would a GW interpret your cannon?
