There we go Ken14, "the shooting of running hogs is discouraged".
That is exactly the type of shooting that
that we have to do in TENN. Up close, fast and personal.
There is no place for mouse guns in this game. Like I said
before, I've been treed by those critters. Come up north
to the heavy cover hog hunting. Hit the right hog in the
wrong place with a pop-gun and you "might" live to regret it.
The Good Ol Boys that guide us have the scars to prove it.
(and so do their dogs). Personally I consider the .243 a MARGINAL
deer round. I had to use one for the first 4 years of my
deer hunting years. I hit 3 big MN Whitetails in a row in my first
3 years. 2 were shoulder socket hits and one was dead center
lung hit. All needed 1 or 2 more shots to finnish the job. And you think
that I am going to use something like that on dangerous
animals???? JMHO.
