375 Ruger draws first blood on first bushpig

Post by F.L.A.S.H »

I had the good fortune to hunt this bushpig last night. My new Howa 375 drew first blood beautifully on her first hunt for my first Bushpig. The shot was taken at 4m.

I can't seem to load the pic of my phone:( can I email it to anyone to post for me:)

Swys I couldn't believe it ( and nearly pooped myself) I heard the peg and then saw the white face come out of the bush 5m away heading strait for me. Had to shoot pretty quickly. I have never had an adrenaline rush like that
