Dougy Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 Yes don't shoot them up the back end. Aim at the front, 1/2 way up the head and a foot back from there will put them on the ground. Reload pretty bloody quick too cus there will be 1 or 2 more right behind. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Green Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 Yes, if shooting with other people be incredibly wary of their gun handling and general safety. Its likely to be apalling. Other than that have a great time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crossy 666 Posted December 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 Crossy what scope did you end up with Im still looking for a z6i but ran out of time so took my s&b of my .22-250 and put it on my .308 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougy Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 I know its a bit late but you really would be better off with an illuminated ret on something less than 3x mag. Your field of view needs to be as wide as possible, if your doing driven days on the ground, they could pop out at you from less than 5 yards away, if your in high seats then you may get a little more time due to being able to see them earlier. Stalking them you would not have the same problems with a med to low mag scope as they would not be on the move as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crossy 666 Posted December 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 This is just a test run Dougy. If we like it ian is willing to take us 3/4 times a year. There might be more choice in scopes about after xmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EMcC Posted December 14, 2014 Report Share Posted December 14, 2014 No rush for the pictures, just enjoy your trip and shoot a few more. If the Roe appear first don't shoot them as it will turn the pigs back, mind you, if that was all that shows then fill your boots. Good luck and now you have the 'Pig Bug' I'm sure our paths may cross some time in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
