Comment on Recommended rifle and ammunition for hunting California wild pigs by SavageShooter

.308 is a oldie but goldie when it comes to caliber selection. You can kill piggy’s with a .223 up to say a .416 Rigby if you want. I personally think anything more than a .308 is too much, while using a .243/.270 is about perfect for that animal type. But for all around cartridge, the .308 can shoot varmint (110gr bullets) up to Elk (190gr bullets) So you can’t go wrong with that caliber.

for public land hunting dogs are a necessary tool hogs will hole up and you will walk rt by them .best dogs are cattle dogs .kelpiesetc. they are quicker and wont get hurtthe worst would be pit bulls.a spirited breed but not smart enough to stay out of the way.i hear horses into cache creek is agood bet .thanks for posting .im learning how to ride horses .you can cover more ground .plus the dog and the odds are more in your favor.

Shut up Shirley don’t be rediculous he was simply recounting an adventure, it’s offensive for you to try to make him feel bad.

Everyone:
I shot a 245 Lb hog with my Remington 700 BDL in 7mm08
Highly accurate round, 140 grain Remington.
Light recoil. Short action cartridges seem to have very good accuracy.
Shot was at about 75 yards and he anchored right there.
Shoot what you shoot well and accurate.
Son bought me a hog hunt for Christmas and in a few weeks we’ll be out there dropping a few. He’ll be using a Savage kin 7mm08
SC hogs on the Savannah River basin. Doesn’t get any better tha that.

Thanks for posting this. I’m signed up for my first Wildflower (actually first Tri), and am doing the long course. I’m going to use your publication as a training tool. I love hills, both on bike and while running, but I’m hoping I didn’t sign up for too much. Thanks for the posting, and also for the suggestion about not pushing too hard on the bike.
