Hit a pig in the right spot with a .300 Blk or heck, with a good hunting bullet .223 and you have a dead pig. (-and I’m a guy who prefers bigger stuff myself...)
I’m no great shakes with a rifle, unlike guys like Erud but I have gone into herds of Cape buffalo with just a double barrel gun. The danger from pigs is greatly overstated. I’ve done buffalo, bears, cats, pachyderms all with bolt guns and double barreled guns... you don’t need more bullets...just put them in the right place.
There is only one reason to use a semi auto on pigs... because you WANT to.
I’ll make this clarification. There’s a significant difference between hunting pigs and eradicating them. Harvesting “A” hog doesn’t require a semi auto. Liquidating an entire sounder of those feral, invasive and destructive pigs, does.
So you are saying you don't know how to run a bolt gun then?
