        Killed a few with a knife. They are still dead. Killed a few with a .22. Bow. Lost one with BB steel 20 yds while conservation goose hunting. Went back next weekend found same big boar. He took a few 00 buck shells before dropping. Found BB steel all over that big boy just embedded in the skin

          I was checking cattle a while back on my sxs and this little boar was laid up behind a log as I went by. I saw the ears up above the log. I walked back to him and when he stood up I popped him behind the ear.

            I’ve not successfully killed one with the quiet 710fps cci but Ive killed many with standard velocity. The 710fps doesn’t have enough penetration oooomf to knock ‘em down. Granted I mostly shoot 100lb+ pigs

              My dad kills a **** load of them with 22 and I’m certain it is not within bow range either

                If I was living in Keith Warren's shadow I'd rather shoot a baboon or giraffe with a .50BMG. That dude's pretty ridiculous. He does a lot of unnecessary crap.

                    I killed on with a boomerang one time. I may be lying.

                      I've killed plenty with a 22 because I had to but, never purposely carried a 22 to hunt hogs.
                      Heck if you want to kill em with something just to say you did it, I suggest a big rock. Now that would be a camp fire story. Hah!

                          This is the biggest one I’ve killed with my 22, but I’ve killed piles of em all with cci standard velocity and hit between the ear and the eye. All of our feeders are between 75-100yds. Typically I can get 3-4 before they realize what’s going on. The only problem is once they start getting out past 125 or so that bullet starts dropping pretty quick.
