I've talked with a couple guys from Texas about hogs - compared to wolves and they both felt they were as bad, but for different reasons. The wolves killing unglulates and domsetic animals while over populating, and the pigs destroying normal animal habitat which reduces the ungluate numbers through starvation, while the pigs equally over populate & become almost impossible to deal with.

I know nothing of pig hunting. But have a bunch of guns that are suitable at many different ranges, from sniping to bush whacking.
