Out hunting again last night and it was fairly productive. It was in the low 80's and extremely dark with no moon. Around 23:00 I spotted the first sounder with the W-1000 at 500-550 yards. Closed the distance to within 50-60 yards and found 2 sows with a mess of piglets. First shot was the alpha sow and down she went. It took me a second to find the other sow and hit her as she went in the woods. Piglets were scattering everywhere and was able to get 2 before they were gone. A friend of mine that lives 10 mins from this field is having a BBQ this weekend and it wasn't to late so I called him. He came out and took the hams and backstrap off the sow and the 2 piglets whole.
Around 03:00 I spotted another small sounder at around 600-650 yards. Made the walk and got set up. The field now has 4' square bales in it and they were close to the woods so I was only able to get 1 piglet after I dropped this small 140-150 lb boar.
