Howdy all. I am a little embarrassed to post this video giving the horrible shooting. As a disclaimer, the poor shooting is a result of two things: lack of practice and the fact that the shooting stick was unavailable at the time and I was somewhat out in the open and had nothing to rest the rifle on.
Anyway, headed to OK this past week to help out on the ranch. A very full moon and dry land left me with no hogs most of the week, but after a nice evening shower, a sounder of around 50 (mostly footballs) came out. I saw them come across the road and onto the property looking like a swarm from Walking Dead. With the wind and the fact that the moon was starting to break through the clouds, the stalk was long but was able to set up in an area where the hogs were moving towards.
I only hit 3, recovered two (didn't find the first one I shot at, must have only grazed). Couple of things of note is that at time 24 seconds or so you will see a little rabbit that had to be thinking "what the hell..." and also, the main house was off to the left of the first shot which is why I didn't take a couple of shots.
Enjoy the video, sorry for the crappy shooting.
