“I hunt hogs in south texas with a handgun”
You Shot a hog with a 45 and every other gun on the planet and only the 45 dropped it right away.
Where did you shoot the hog with the .357 in the hoof LMAO.
I Can Shoot a hog with a 22 short and drop it where it stands.
A 357 would blow the damn hogs head off.
As for hunting hogs , all you need is a 9mm and a decent shot.
I would take a 9mm over a 45 any day of the week.
I could also put 15 holes rapid fire in a 6” circle at 30 feet to Your 1 with Your 45...
A 45 is a good Weapon but for personal defence the 9 or .40 is better, Ask any LEA..
We have used them all.
That is not true....I have hunted boar all over the Southeast.
Typically folks use 30-30 and up in rifle....slower bulky bullet
or .357 mag or .44 mag or another big fast caliber
you cannot just shoot hogs with anything
