However, this ol' boy keeps his feet on the ground just like the hogs, so there's no such thing as a bolt action hog rifle.Īn almost ideal hog rifle, I believe, is a 30-30 lever action shooting a hard cast 170+ gr bullet. I might would shoot one with a bolt action in a caliber such as 308 Winchester with heavy bullets but never with something like a 243 unless I was in an elevated stand, i.e., already up a tree. I would never shoot a wild boar with a single shot rifle. If the hog is still moving, I'm still shooting. If you don't kill it before it reaches you, well, you're apt to become a pile of bloody meat.Īs I've stated before here in the Frugal Outdoorsman, a wild hog rifle needs the ability to make a fast second shot and even a third, fourth, and fifth shot. If you wound one, especially a boar, it is apt to come after your ass with murder on its mind.
Over the 50+ years I've wandered the north Louisiana woods I've had many encounters with wild hogs.

This manual for the SKS 45 Carbine looks pretty good compared to some of the others. I have decided to post a comprehensive listing of SKS Manuals and websites detailing SKS disassembly/assembly information. It turns out that SKS manuals are very hard to find! Many sites are selling the PDF versions of old manuals that have either had their copyright expired, in which case should be free, or they in face do not have the right to sell and are selling illegally. I thought this was strange as I only had one small post linking to an SKS manual. I have been getting many visitors coming to this blog looking for SKS manuals.
