[QUOTE="John Klingenberg, post: 1834171, member: 107749"] I haven't had much luck with buckshot on hogs over a hundred fifty pounds or so. On the smaller ones it's great. I love a good double or O/U to hunt with. In hairy situations I prefer an ejector model. You can load pretty quick if you've got shells ready in the off hand. In Europe the hogs get pretty big so I'd be hesitant to use buck. The average feral hog in MOST of Texas runs under 200lbs. I've shot thousands and very very few would push 300 and it's rare to see 400. When they first started aerial hunting buckshot was all that was allowed. It was like dove hunting. You'd burn through box after box and it took multiple shots to kill them. Slugs are where it's at. [/QUOTE]
