I shot a hog with a Magnus Stinger a few months ago and after seeing how thick skinned the thing was, I don't think I'd ever use my Rages on them. I'm glad I had a sturdy fixed blade. We went to pick up another guy who shot a hog with a Rage and we couldn't find the hog. It may have been a shot placement issue, but maybe not![:-] Leave the Rages for deer and use a fixed blade.
