Tell your son congrats. I also killed my first pig this year with a 444 marlin. He toted it for about 300 yds. Shot right behind front shoulder. Those hornady lever revolutions are the bullet to go with.Massive exit wound, with excellent blood trail. What caliber rifle did he shoot with?

Thanks for getting him into the woods to do a little animal control! Great hunt he will remember for a lifetime.

I'll bet you couldn't pry off that smile with a crow bar... Tell congrats, he's done more than most grown men have.

cool nice hog and story

NOW THATS COOL........[8D]

Congratulations to your son, that is a dandy pig!

Wow thats awsome. That's one happy little hunter.

Thanks fellas! I'll pass-on y'alls congrats to him.

He was using an H&R .243 with a heavy barrel and 100gr sierra handloads.(you can see it in the first pic)I bought it "used" with the scope. I cut the stock so it would fit him better. I'll be replacing the scope forone of much better quality. It does okay for regular daylight shooting, but in low light, it's terrible.

Yeah, that's exactly what my father-in-law said when we got back to camp.

Nice hog. Tell him congrats.
