I saw a video on Youtube today made by some fella in Texas who calls himself "Pig Man". The videos were actually of better quality than a lot that you find on there. The video I saw has him shooting a hog with a BFR in .450 Marlin. It was a nice rig, with white micarta grips and scope carried in a Bandido rig. It was the first practical application I've seen of the setup in the field, in person or on video. You could see in the video where he hit the hog, a 350 pounder, with that .450 Marlin. The hog ran off. It eventually died, they found it the next morning, but I couldn't believe it had run off in the first place. Them hogs must be tough!


If it were supposed to be easy, they'd have sent my little sister to do it.
