My crawl through the brush handgun is a .357 mag but you need to hit them in the head with that when they are head down and charging at you. You would not want to get pushed to the ground by a 400lb hog.

All in all it was great sport and I felt like a redneck Robert Ruark or Karamojo Bell.

My friend "The Pig Hunter" only see's sport in hog hunting and bear hunting .

He laughs at me for liking to shoot deer !

But strangely enough he takes all the venison I can give him which is usually somewhere in the 10-12 deer a year category
