Shooting feral pigs

Not easy, a couple off misses, sure, but most of his connects are 1 shot kills.

Interesting thing is he was using a shotgun. I have seen a similar video from Australia and that guy was using a Steyr Scout in .308.The way he was bowling over them was impressive to say the least.

That was pure feral control, done by registered professional feral control shooters
Weapons of choice are SA 223 M-16 clones, Ruger Mini 14 etc-Used for everything from camel to pigs
last estimate -400,000 camels , feral.Come and do it.

Sure if you gyuys are down here, pig country is Queensland and you can do the same on foot/quad bikes. Arnhemland is known for its monster boars and Barramundi

You want more gun control? Use both hands!

What do they do with the dead animals. Are they left to rot?
