Ok, I know wrong gun to hunt with right, I know I know. However it's the only rifle I have and damnit I want to use it on something other than paper targets or watermelons.
So here are my choices 16" 5.56 upper, 20" 5.56 upper, or 18" 7.62x39mm upper. It's 100% Colt.
Location will be a ranch in Texas (not sure how big they get down there).
I was initially thinking the AK upper but then thought the 20" may be a better choice for higher velocity?
I've never been hog hunting before so any tips are appreciated. Including what kind of ammo to use.
Also need a reco for a scope, I guess something that works at night?
So LEOs and gun freaks take me to school. :beer:
Please don't say get a .308 because my next purchase will be a Barret 50 and while I would love to see what it would do to a hog, I don't feel like dropping the coin on one yet. ;-)
