[QUOTE="muleyman, post: 386580, member: 11540"] As said before, you'll need an all copper bullet as no lead allowed, (condor range) so that may change from what you're already using. I believe Barnes makes an all copper slug now. Also if they are really just feral hogs they will be on the smaller side, but inter-breeding with wild ones will significantly make them bigger and tougher. They generally don't bleed much when hit behind the shoulder as they have a thick plating just under the skin so its best to try and put them down on the spot. A lot of times if they hit the brush or thickets they'll be really hard to follow. I would imagine in that area you'll be hunting open fields near thicker draws where they hide during the day. You also probably already know but if you're going to eat these critters, smaller ones taste a hell of a lot better than the big boars.......Good luck [/QUOTE]
