I've been after this one for a while. It's been digging in my yard for too long. Shot it with my S&W model 19 357 mag using 125 grain XTP and a stiff load of H-110. I hit it at about 25 yards while it was at a full run.

Good riddance! They are close second to the hog for yard damage.


It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

Good job!

Good deal!

We don't have them here so that would be a trophy to me! Good shooting!
