hog hunting with a mosin nagant
hey everyone just wanted to post about my first time out with my mosin.
did some hog hunting down in Okeechobee florida and put 3 rounds into the pig before he went down or even made a noise.
got a video of it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHvvKZ-M4Xg
and here is the prize

yeah it packs a lot of punch. its a 7.62 x54r which is basically a 308 with a slightly longer cartridge
i chose it for 2 reasons. first off its a military surplus gun so it was only 100 dollars. and secondly... the movie enemy at the gates

same thing seemed to be happening to everyone who used 308's or .270's. Arrows seemed to be the only things taking them down with the first shot. i was a bit surprised

not sure why it took 3 shots other than they just punched through like paper. 2 of the shots hit right behind the front legs in the lungs and the one that seemed to make it sequel and go down hit the stomach.
