Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

Just got back from South Africa. Here's a few pics of one of 3 warthogs I shot. I used my Rem 700 KS Custom Safari in 375 H&H shooting Barnes 235gr TSX.
Scope is Leupold 1.75X6 w/target turrets. The distance was only 60 yds.

Had a great time. Also got an Eland, Burchell's Zebra and Springbok.

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

These were taken with .223 while on a stalk, the little one took multiple rounds (8) with the last one being at 2 feet! NHD and I were very close quartered in the brush trying to finish him.

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

Shot this one under the left eye, with the exit out the right ear at about 10 yards prone after it walked right to me. Sorry about the crappy pics

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

Wanted to field test the new 6mm Ackley on some game.

Damn it worked good, shot just behind the shoulder and DRT. 6mm 107gr SMK w/ 49gr RL22

 

[rnd00]

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

Catzass,

Had that boar been cut?

 

[H5N1]

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

RND, I don't think he was cut. That 6mmAI hit him like a laser he fell straight down.

 

[wnroscoe]

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

What bullet are ya'll shooting with the 6mmAI?

 

[H5N1]

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

6mm 107gr SMK w/ 49gr RL22 @3250fps
I have a feeling you will be seeing it soon.

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

Got this one last Wed. night with the Yugo "Sniper". One shot, back of the head with 122 gr. HP. this was one of about 25 that were about 60 yrds from the house. still haven't got the proper scope set up yet, but the red dot was cheap, fast, and efficient. works great for night-time pig work!

the following week about 1915 hrs., several pigs moving down the tree line, ranged at 170 yrds. little fellow bringing up the rear stayed still just a little too long.
sorry for the bad pics, all I had with me was my cell phone.

[powerline78]

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

All shot in benavides TX. The big one was 224lb, and the
javelina was 55lb. Shot with 55gr nozler bt.

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

Big Bar Hog
We did a count down on this one in the dark at 200yds. 30-06 and 6.5x47L bullets hit about 4in apart. 16x SS is not what you want overcast with 88% moon, but it worked.

For those of you not familiar with bar hogs they are rare. They are boars that have been trapped or caught with dogs, castrated, tails removed and ear notched then released.

 

[H5N1]

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

Another Bar Hog. Notice his ear.
Berger 130gr hunting VLD this time.

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

Looking through some pics and found these from back in March.

 

[Catzass]

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

Countdown on this one in the Dark, 6.5x47 w/ 130gr Berger VLD and 6mm Ackley w/ 107gr SMK...both bullets passed through...awesome results!

here's another

 

[Catzass]

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

Another Boar we shot under the moonlight, the grass was too tall to get prone so we climbed into an old stand that was near by...just about the time we get set up the wasps started landing on us...pitch black, trapped in a box with a swarm of pissed off wasps...it was awesome fun!

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

Well I was out defending the milo from the black boar hoards and finally caught this biggun offguard....I had seen him about 3 times already but couldn't get a shot. This time he paused in the road 1 sec too long, which gave me about 3sec to get on him and I managed to get one in him quick, but it only wounded him...he ran about 200 yrds before he tired out enough for me to put another one in him that anchored him. He was about 275lbs. I used a 223 Ackley Improved with 75gr AMAX bullets which normally only need one shot, but he was pretty big and I gut shot him on the first round. The rifle was in our new UPR (unlimited precision rifle) chasis rifle stock that takes AI magazines, is night vision scope ready and folds. Die piggy Die...enjoy!

80 yds DRT with a 6.8 SPC

My son with his pig from the same spot with the 6.8

 

[H5N1]

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

As usual, we did a count down on this boar hog with the 6.5x47 and 30-06 at 227yds. 60% moon overcast, the S&B and NV on a Nikon were the only way this was possible.

 

[H5N1]

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

Last night 96% moon, NHD and I barely got set up before I cleared his mind...

His little group was camping around the protein feeder, so tonight we will try to kill a few more of them.

Big ol' lean boar...

 

[H5N1]

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

The full moon has been a blast! We have shot 8 pigs in the last 4 nights.

Here are 2 from last night. These were shot about an hour apart.

Just trying to keep the swine flu to a minimum...

Re: 2010 Sniper's Hide Pork'n Swine Portfolio

If anyone decides to organize a BYOR pig hunt, I'm sure the Hide could provide a heck of a lot of volunteers. Hint!
