Walked up on a herd of hogs last night using my new PVS-14 night vision. Shot the first one (biggest boar), and the others ran off. About a minute later the boar started squealing and the others turned around and started running back towards me. Needless to say I was starting to get nervous, since I was by myself in the middle of a pasture, pitch black outside, with no trees or cover nearby. When the herd (about 12 or so) got about 50 yards away I shot the second one, they turned and ran beside me and I killed the third one before the others finally ran off.
With the 762SDN-6 silencer I think they have a hard time figuring out where the shots came from. This is not the first time I have had hogs run almost towards me after I shot one using a silencer.
This was using an 8" Noveske barrel, 125 grain Atlanta Arms Pink Tip.

Even if they couldn't hear where the shots were coming from, I'm sure with their natural ability to see in the dark (to an extent) they saw you better than you would have wanted. Good shooting and glad to hear you safe.

Good pic's of those killin' machines especially with the NV's. Out of curiosity, do you keep the meat, give it away, or haul it out to the back 40?
