Default RE: Weapons for hogs

I shot a charging 200 pound boar in the forehead 3 times with a Ruger Blackhawk 357 and had to climb a tree to get away from him. My Dad had already shot him once in the shoulder with a 243. With my fourth shot, I hit him just below his ear, and he collapsed.
Wow....one tough hog. I better get rid of my pistol and go for some of Ausie-guy's artillery! Thanks for sharing the story. Ray
