Haha. At least we don't have radioactive pigs to deal with.

Researchers at Fukushima, the site of the 2011 nuclear disaster in Japan, have found that a new mutant species of radioactive boar-pig has emerged from the wasteland.

They came back for another foray.

So, I set my motion-detector sprinkler out, the one I use to keep animals out of my garden. And it worked.

Wonder what those neighbors would think of some Tannerite at night?

You want to see Wild hogs killed with air guns?
Here's a link to a friend of mine showing just some of his air gun kills!
https://www.gatewaytoairguns.org/GTA...363#msg1214363

The Max .25 he shows in a few pictures is now mine.
It's a semi-auto .25 cal BullPup style.
I've dropped Ground Hogs with my RainStorm .30 at 90 yards.
Head shots!
1 shot, 1 kill!
So they can and will drop big hogs with proper shot placement!

All quiet last night, maybe the fireworks scared them off.

Sometimes they range off and don't come back for months.

Jeff-Groves · 07-05-21, 09:13 AM

PCP air guns have no recoil to speak about.
AND silencers are totally legal with NO government license needed!
Even my .50 Evanix Sniper is silent and deadly!
All you hear is the impact of the round down range!

Did you know if it's your land you could even sell Hog hunts?
To sell hunts you would need a hunting lease license.
If you allowed hunters and did not take any compensation you don't need that.
They would not even need a license if they have permission to hunt your property!

Right now I'm working on getting a AEA Zeus .72 cal for a Buffalo kill in Wyoming!
Here's the key to kills with Air Guns.
We know the limitations of our Guns. We NEVER take a wild body shot knowing full well our rounds have a limited amount of FPE at POI.
Good shooters ONLY take head shots to insure a quick and humane kill.
We study the intended target to know best placement of the used round.
One can, and many have, dropped Big Hogs with a simple .22 cal Break barrel!

How good are Air Gunners?
A recent example of shooting in Iowa.
I and a friend met south of Sioux City to plink targets.
We had cans of soda set up at 75 yards and exploded them with ease!
Some Powder Burner people showed up and mentioned "Those Guys are shooting 'BB Guns'!" And laughed.
As we sat there they wasted a butt load of ammo shooting at 2 foot targets at 30 and 40 yards and missing them about 90% of the time!
Given they were about 30 yards away I loudly said "I could take those weapons away from them before they could take my BB Gun!"
Guess who was real interested in our GUNS from that point forward?

Perhaps a good ol' Texan resource on the subject could shed some light...
