Need recs for a hog hunt

Posted by Sawzal on 2/14/19 at 9:41 am
A couple buddies and I are looking to go for a weekend hog shoot. Thought about the helicopter hunts but don't want to shell out the cash. Has anyone done a "guided" hog hunt? Don't really need a guide to hold our hand, just need a place that has hogs for us to spot and stalk.

That's a decent bit of time.. Save the dog man.

You know what they say about assuming.. And that saying holds 100% true here.
Thanks all for the recommendations. All very solid advice and making my decision even harder

For some reason I am extremely drawn to the ACOG but the only thing holding me back is they don't make one specifically for the 6.5 grendel round. Trying to figure out if the ballistics are close enough to another round they do have a reticle for.
Howdy OB, long time listener first time caller here. I have had my finished 6.5 Grendel AR-15 for about a year now and I am (finally) looking to upgrade from my iron sights to a nicer optic. I've got a couple I am looking at now but want some outsider input. This will be used primarily as a spot and stalk hog gun with the occasional sitting in a stand and hunting hogs/deer.

I currently have my sights on (punintended) Trijicon ACOG in either 4x32 or 3.5x35, Trijicon AccuPoint 2.5-12.5x42, and Leupold VX-5HD 2-10x42mm CDS-ZL2.

Any opinion on these options or any other potential options within my budget? Budget does not include nice mounts but if anyone has recommendations on those I am all ears.
