Last Sat morning I was up watching Bill Jordan's Real Tree outdoors. They showed a guy hunting wild boar with a rifled 12 ga with a bushnell red dot holosight mounted on it.
In short, he came w/i about 50 yards of a 300 lb boar. The guy was a great shot...he hid behind a small ridge in front of the boar...jumped up and fired a shot w/i 3 seconds...very quick target acquisition! The boar dropped where it stood. My question is have any of you tried this set up? What were you hunting? I ask b/c I hope to go boar hunting again and I want to try my remington 870 with slugs.
Thanks in advance for any input!
