Quick turkey hunt last Thursday turns in to Hogzilla encounter. Just happened to take my trusty $100 single shot 243 camp rifle and had it laying on the ground beside me-shotgun in my lap. I see this monster coming from about 100 yards. I’m thinking if I don’t hit him in the noggin it’s probably gonna piss him off. So, wait until he’s about 40 yards and let him have it. Needless to say he couldn’t take it and dropped like a rock. Biggest one we have taken on our place. Although he was too heavy for us to get back to camp and weigh our best guess is a solid 300lbs. Moral of the story-never leave camp without plenty of firepower!!
