    Man that looks like a hoot! Love to do that some time. You have to be a hell of a shot though. That's like shooting bison from the back of a moving train

    What I'd really like to do is that but with a GE Minigun. Who needs a grinder when you have one of those.

    Their not moving as fast as it looks, and the hogs are a lot closer, too.

    I'm assuming he's using a 12 gauge, 3 or 3 1/2" 00 magnum, loads. Muzzle velocity is approximately 1400 fps.

    Energy at impact is like a Mack Truck, as you seen in the video.

    Watching the video, all I could think of,was.

    GIT SOME!! GET SOME!!

    The little ones are easy...YA DONT HAVE TO LEAD UM AS MUCH.!!

    I have been told that if you are moving faster than your target you have to shoot behind them not lead them.

    Just watched that video. Wow!

    Just flying in a helicopter like that would be great fun...
    But flying and shooting hogs would be ultimate.

    Wonder if they offer hog shootin vacations??
    Probably too expensive for us mere mortals.
