I think so. Estimated at about 300 lbs
He came up on it, and didnt want to turn the dogs on him, so he shot him between the eyes with a .22 magnum. The dogs grabbed ahold of his ears, and He finished him off with his knife. Taken in Southern Greenville County, SC on Monday Jan 10th by Tyler Chappell

GOOD LORD !!! what a mombo!

I just seen on the news down south, they have big problem with them ripping up people's yards and going nuts everywhere.sounds like plenty of shooting going on...
 
Re: Hog problem?

I watched a hog hunting video once, where the hunter was trailing a hog up a hill, and the hog doubled back and jumped from an outcropping, ^over^ the hunter's head. woohoo! Wish I still had that video.
 
Re: Hog problem?

A .22 mag???? really? I've seen much smaller hogs take 5 rounds from a .357 before they go down. I'm not saying it's not possible to take one with a .22 mag, I'm just saying that it must've been one heck of a shot! haha.

Shot wasnt far, and it surely didnt finish him off, just rolled him down so the dogs could get on him.

He finished it off with a knife about 8 inches long to the throat.
 
Re: Hog problem?

Very Cool. Where did you bag him?

22 mag. Reminds me of my first encounter with a wild Pig in New Zealand. The thing ran me up a tree. All I had was my 22 mag, I was shooting rabbets and didn't think about coming across a pig. Well the 22's did nothing and I stayed up there till he got sick of getting stung by the "Bee Stings" I was sending his way.
