wild boar hunting with handguns

adkRoy:
Has anyone else hunted wild boar with a hand gun? I am thinking about hunting with my .357 in February. I am having a scope put on mu gun. I just want to know if anyone else has done this and at what caliber.

fly-in:
If you call a blitz gun (a captive bolt gun) a hand gun it is the only way I have ever shot a boar, except those boar weren't wild. but the gun is a .45cal most time it only takes one shot.

That's not very much gun for a hog. You'd have to take close shots.  In my opinion, I'd use a .44mag or better.

MASTERGUIDE:
I agree, use big gun.

My brother and My dad each got a wild hog with a .357 two weeks ago.
