Evening folks. In a nutshell, theres some wild boar roaming the area i hunt turkeys (lets say north of the Mass border). I saw fresh trails 3 wks ago when took my eldest son and some his buddies ice fishin. Im a lifelong wingshooter with no big-game experience. On my last 3 hunts ive had signs of pigs feeding within 10' of my groundblinds. My buddy has offered up his 6" open-sght SW model 29 to carry in, just in case. I believe theyre feeding at night. I would like to be ready if the opportunity presents itself some early AM. Ive put over a thousand rounds through my 45 acp, so im famililar with handgun disciplines. Shot 44 target loads. Id obviously spend some time at the range shootin the same rounds i would hunt with...which brings me to suggestions from you'all. I like the idea of a 44 handgun as opposed to carrying two longarms. I would appreciate any and all advice from those who have hunted with a 44 handgun.
Thanks, Fishengame.
