Found a friend with property 30 mins from me on the Brazos River with 370 acres. First time out scouting the property for me and showing him the NV/thermal. Saw this #180 boar in hay field that's been getting rooted up. Stalked to about 75 yards. Told friend to take him with thermal. He had issue chambering a round and the gun went "click" then when he tried to rechamber a round it jammed/double fed/the unseated cartridge didn't eject..(that may have been my fault by overloading the magazine, but I'm pretty sure I had filled the magazine and removed the top 2 rounds last week and hadn't touched it since.. Oh well). All this alerted the boar that I was holding on with the pvs-14/3x/eotech...Head on shot entered forehead, exited behind ear.

Great first night on a property that we might get to on a weekly basis, so hopefully I can start contributing to more dead hogs more often.
12.5 inch *** 6.8spc. Sig SRD762Ti-QD. 120 grain sst.

Awesome on the new lease. Nice razorback there! Good shot Blakester
 
Nice, it sure makes it easier when it isn't an ordeal to get there and back.
 
Nice job and good luck on the property!
 
Good shooting!
 
Congrats on the close to home hunt property- the successful head shot- and most of all, Congrats on the dead Hog.
 
It is merely a flesh wound. Close to home hogs is a good thing! Nice shot!
 
That one's about a fire plug of a hog. Some nice cutters on him too. Congrats.
 
Congrats on the hog and the new property. Good shooting.
 
Thanks yall! I forwarded this link to Taylor, my friend with the land. If not sooner, I'll hopefully get him to join in the next few months
 
Tell him the longer he waits, the more grief it'll cost him. LOL
 
I'm sure yall will give him a great PG-14 initiation
 
Don't do it Taylor, Save yourself!
