I started hunting hogs this year with a bow, I went with some friends after bow season was up and. They had 22 mags, so I bought me one put it between there eye and there ear and they will drop like a rocks, we went Friday and my buddy shot his right behind the shoulder in the good stuff on a 225pound boar and it didn't make it 50 yards, another guy shot a smaller one (150pds or so) in the same spot and it didn't make it 20 yards, I shot one that same day in-between the eye and the ear and dropped it at about 60yards, also went this morning, same scenario but at about 25 yards and stoned her lights out,
We all have marlin 22. Mags, I have a Simmons 3x9 on mine , black strap 2 mags and 200 bullets cost me 300$- can't beat that at all if you ask me!
So, so far, hogs up to 225 pounds is no match for this 22mag. I'll have videos up of them soon, right now I just have the bow hunts up, but lots of 22mag hog action to come!
Still waiting on a bigger hog 300# plus to see how the ole 22 mag fairs against it, but i think as long as you hit em in the "thinker" it won't matter how big they are
