About 3:15, I decided to take another walk around my place. I grabbed the .223 & walked to the end of the concrete slab in front of my butcher room & looked out towards my target backstop. I spotted a g-hog just down over the lip of the bank going to the top floor of my barn. I had to shoot off-hand & the 1st shot hit just above its head. Instead of running for its den, it sat there giving me a 2nd shot which went into its right ear. There is nothing left of the left side. Those .223s are devastating. I thought the 1st shot had hit it in the rear end but it’s just some blood & tissue from the head shot. I think this 1 & the 1 I got the other day were litter mates as they were about the same size & I killed them within 15’ of each other. I’ll have to keep an eye out around my target range for more.  |

Great shootin'. Amazing how after years of cleaning them out, there's plenty more each year. They sure get around your part of the township!
