I guess I am sorta old school and don't really care for guns that try to be made into what they weren't intended for....70 yard turkey guns, 300 yard muzzleloaders, 200-300 yard slug guns, etc.
That's the reason I said in a previous post to KISS (keep it simple n stupid). With the exception of S Fla in that open country and some long shots on food plots, most shots ( I would say 80%) are less than 50 yards anyways. I put 11 animals in the freezer last season and most were 20-40 yard shots. One shot was 120 yards with my ML
plus 1. also with slug guns imo, the one you practice with the most will be the one you shoot the best, even if it may not be the most accurate. if that makes any sense.
Yepperz sabots cost a bit though you do not need have to use sabots in a rifled bbl he could still shoot foster style slugs fine.Agree with using the correct ammo that your firearm shoots best! Though if you know how you and your firearm perform with a certain slug the game whether 20 yards or 150 yards will be dead.
No hand gunners? A guy from Dan Wesson sold me on a 445 Super Mag. Told me most smaller handgun rounds, 40 Mag, 44 Mag, would just make a hole, the hog's fat would cover it over and voila no blood trail. I bought the gun, haven't taken a hog with it yet!
Ok me and my friends have killed hogs with everything from bow, rifles, knifes, hands to a Death Star.
Things to help you dont chase them after you shoot them give them time to relax sitdown and die. Blood trails are not allway great. Shot placement is the key.
