Just got back from a russian boar hunt with my two friends. Great time but I was surprised how much gun these pigs need to take down. I was the first to get a shot i was using a 35 whalen with a 225gr nosler. My first shot was at about 100 yards put one behind the shoulder he took off I thought we find him about a hundred yards or so we trailed him over 500 yards he look find.Took my next shot at about 50 yards and that but him down. Both shots hit him. Next up my freind got a shot with his 44mag at 23 yards he hit him in the spine he when down but still tryed to get away on his front legs another shot got him in the spine he still was kicking a heart shot at 10 feet finished him.The next pig was shot a 50yards with a 30-06 with 165gr bullet behind his shoulder it just turned and looked at my friend like nothing happen 4 more shots finally got him down. The boar weighed between 180 and 240 tough animals
