[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 1338880, member: 229"] I assure you that I'm not going after them with it - but by golly if I'm stuck in a tree (which would mean that my rifle has failed me and I had to run), there's going to be some hogs around me that get shot with a 9mm for sure (and Federal Hydra-Shok +Ps, Winchester Ranger +P+, or Speer Gold-dot +Ps are going to get the job done - at least if I'm safe in a tree). I don't want to get into the whole "there's no such thing as knock-down power" argument, but the best way to kill a Hog is the same way to kill large game / stop any other threat - by taking out a vital part of it with good penetration and damage. I realize that 9mm isn't optimal for this, but neither are rounds like .45acp or other slower bullets. I'm conscious of the limitations of my CCW gun, but again - its only there in case my rifle fails (and/or my extra mags run out :D). [/QUOTE]
