Fifteen hogs down with the new Six8 Razorback. - 08/17/14 09:32 PM

I have been very blessed and LWRC has sent me one of their Six8 Razorback limited Edition rifles to test, evaluate, and whack hogs with! Having never owned a piston AR before I was not sure what to expect. I received the rifle Thursday it is beautiful.

Over the last two nights I've been hunting one field which is not my typical style but I hunt this place twice a year its right on a river and has soybeans planted. This field is 2000 yards X 1000 yards of flat earth with no cover. The first few days after planting and harvest are usually great hunting. The last two years have been pretty slow they wont come out into the middle of the field anymore, they hang close to the edges close to cover. The rain came through and cut our hunt short this year you will sink above your knees in these fields when wet, but I still managed to knock down 15 with the new Six8 Razorback.

Two nice boars were taken the best was this guy 280 pounds worth of razorback he went down DRT at about 120 yards. He was actually the last hog killed before we got washed out.

Next was this guy he took a 120 sst on the run at 140 yards knocked him over, he rolled then still managed to get up and make it 40 yards into the river beds thick cover before expiring.

Here is a short video clip where we take 7 out of 8 in this group. The hogs were 130 yards from us, for some strange reason they all tried to get to their trail coming into the field instead of just running into the cover. That cost them dearly and you will see in the video they are all getting popped right at the covers edge there was a nice pile of them on that trail LOL. The farmer hunting with me was using a 300 blackout with factory Barnes 110 black tips, after this weekend it is for sale not one hog he hit went straight down.


Here are a few of the smaller hogs.

Great post, I can't stand the 300 blackout and my two cents is 308 all day long. A have an AR 10 with a thermal and a tikka T3 bolt action.

Love me some .308 that's what I uses on hogs until I found the 6.8 SPC. And will get an AR10 someday, but after using both the 6.8 is hard to beat 80% of the .308's power out to 300 yards no recoil in a lighter package.

That's some great info, I always shake my head at the posts for 223 or 22-250 and hogs. Knowing what it takes to kill a 300 lb boar, especially one that is running. Great post I am headed out tonight to a cornfield that has been absolutely torn up!
