Default RE: Going Boar hunting w/410 Help!

Don't let these guys tell you a 410 is to small for hog. I've popped a bunch of them with about everything you can use other than handguns. .22 and .410 I got the most with. You know just to use a slug, you can put a regular bullet in a 410 but it is very unsafe. I shoot'em in the neck on a real big hog, most under 100 pounds you can bust behind the shoulder. I've never had move after it's been shot in the neck. Our hogs can get pretty big, not unusual to get up past 400 pounds, flinging dogs everywhere, leaving a trail of destruction, swimming rivers and killing fish with thier smell. Then you can jump on it with a knife! or if your getting a little to old for that you can use a gun.
