I've scared up some hogs and had a big boar run around 60yds into high grass/trees and it was blowing/snorting at me. It was standing its ground and I guess daring me to come closer. I didn't take it up on its offer and just slipped out of there.

I have a cousin that got charged by a big boar after shooting it with 3.5in buck shot. He shot it 3 times before he dropped it about 6 foot away. This thing was definitely charging him. Also know some guys that got chased in the water by some boars.

Have had very few charge me over the years, that includes trailing several big boars that were shot but not dead.

That being said I typically use an AR-10 in .308 or a 3.5" 00 or #4 buck and have yet to have anything do much after taking the business end of that.
