[QUOTE="Huntfly, post: 2242880, member: 119120"] Your 25/06 or your 6.5 creedmore will be fine or what ever you are comfortable with. Once again shot placement is the key. Most of my hog hunting has been still hunting over bait in and around river swamps where if they did not go right down you lost them. Iwas taught to draw a line from the ear down and then from the eye over to the intersecting line. Put the bullet there, instant death. I have seen shoulder shots with 300 Weatherby run. You may be hunting at night or over bait in a blind so alot is going to depend on how you go about it. One thing I do know is you do not want to be stumbling around at night looking for a wounded hog in the Texas scrub. Trust me, you are headed for a good time! [/QUOTE]
