[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 1554658, member: 313"] I was in Farifax SC. I took a large boar with a new 458 SOCOM, which I bought just for fun. A single shot through the lungs resulted in a quick kill. RE: Using a 223 on hogs; there was a hunter there using a 223 to hunt pigs. He told me that he took four shots at a hog, of which he heard/saw three connect. The pig ran off far enough to not be recovered. I'm guessing that a larger caliber would have increased the odds of recovery. That's just what I observed this week, I'm sure a good head shot with a 223 would have been a game changer. [/QUOTE]
