And I've seen hogs take more than 2 shots of .223 and keep truckin'. Like I said, if you don't have a good shot, don't take it. Simple hunting ethics.

As someone who has been guiding hog hunts for a very long time, you simply do not know what you are talking about.

What isn't to get about using an underpowered load?

A .22 will kill deer, but doesn't mean you should use it. If you're not going to use the right load for the job, at least get a good kill shot or use something adequate.

They didn't suffer, I assure you...

Nothing wrong with that. A "couple of shots" isn't my idea of humane dispatching.

That's cute. Using a snare to put the animal in distress, then dispatching him with a less than sufficient load for the job.
