Went to the hog wallow at sun up today. Wasn't in the stand more than 5min. when they came out of the woods. Didn't even have time to look for the crossword puzzle I usually work while waiting. Got my ear plugs out of my pocket and dropped one. Had to duck down and look for it. I always try to use them whenever shooting. Fortunately the hogs didn't pay any attention to the scuffling. I guess they were far enough away and fixated on the bait. Even through the scope there wasn't quite enough light to pick out a target. Just a mass of blobs moving around in the predawn light. Finally three or four moved away and left a couple on the bait. This one drew the short straw. The 7mm-08 punched his ticket.
BTW. How many of you are old enough to remember getting a ticket of any kind punched? Train-bus-theater-ballgame!!
