RE: best gun for hogs
I hate buckshot for any hunting, home defence yes but hunting no.
I've whitnessed far to many deer peppered with 00 buck and lost,so I doubt a hog would be any easier to kill with this stuff!
I started deer hunting with buckshot back in the 70's and after wounding three and recovering none I decided to hunt with a rifle or give it up altogether. Since then I've lost one deer that was hit and I've clean missed two.
I quit counting at 40 dead, some years ago. Glenn
