Jim:

I'll follow up on your post so other know what we're talking about.

On Friday afternoon, Jim and I hunted alone in the high fence area. Our guide took us around the area where we would hunt and when we got out of the vehicle, we saw about seven boar in the field to our left. Jim and I ran up to the fence line and Jim let his .470 rip at the big boar in the front. After he fired, we saw the boar trip and run slower. We knew that Jim hit him, just didn't know where. Right after Jim fired, I put the bead of my .500 on one of the boars in the back and squeezed off my right barrel...bringing the gun down out of recoil, I saw the boar was still running, but I did notice that a tree directly behind the boar was falling...Not a huge tree..maybe 5-7 inches in diameter (Jim, would you say that was right?) Seeing that happen I couldn't concentrate on the boar any longer and I just had to laugh.

We paced off the distance and we were shooting at the boars from about 140 yards. (I think it was 146 yards.) When we got to the opposite corner of the field, we looked at my tree and sure enough, it looked like lightening had struck it...splinters everywhere.

So, when confronted with a deadly charging tree, I have NO DOUBT that my .500 NE will do its job!
