We have a 150-175 pound pig terrorizing our backyard. Poisoning and trapping are out of the question as we have a dog and there are deer (which aren't causing too much damage). The county will charge us an arm and a leg and take forever to remove.
I have a .22 rifle with hollow points and a .410 shotgun. Will either of these lay him down or do I need something bigger? If so, what's the smallest and cheapest I would need? Sorry, my hunting days are from long ago.
I can only get within about 50yds or so. I sprayed him once with the .410 and he squealed and ran. Probably like 5 bee stings to him. The shot was bird shot (all I had at the time).
Thanks for any help. Free pork to anyone who helps!
