My luck if I ran him over one of his cutters would get the sidewall of my tire and my spare too.

Dj don't you know it's illegal to hack someone's personal photos and post on the internet.
Details?
I was using a R700 5R in .308 with a McCann Industries MIRS rail, an illuminated NF SHV 5-20x56 scope, a SWR .30 cal. direct thread supressor, and an Armasight Gen 3P clip on night vision unit using 168g Barnes TTSX bullets.
I've been putting out corn in this spot for the last several months. The Little Pee Dee River is high, so the water in the swamps is backing up and driving the hogs to higher ground. I pulled into the property last night, and saw about 40 hogs out in the field. Since it is muddy from all the rain we've had recently and I'm about as graceful and nimble as a hippo, I didn't want to risk spooking them by making a stalk. I took a shot at the biggest sow out there from about 160 yards. The Barnes bullet dropped her in her tracks. The rest of the sounder scattered as soon as I pulled the trigger. I'm kinda bummed that the rest of the sounder was pretty small in size. I'm still waiting for a "big" kill.
After I shot the sow, I made sure she was dead, put out more corn, then went to check out another spot. There weren't any hogs at spot # 2, so I went back to my main corn pile. I was gone from the spot for about 30 minutes. When I got back, I could see that there was a lone hog eating the corn I had just put out. I shot him in the neck from about 75 yards. I took a pocket camera with me, but the batteries were low and the flash wasn't working.
I got home about 3:00 am this morning, and got up at 6:45 to get ready for work. I'll rest tonight and go back tomorrow night to see if I can kill a few more of them.

Problem Hog. I was done for the night and part way back to the truck when I spied this guy behind me. He was 175 lbs and shot at distances ranging from 155-175 yards. He went down after first two shots, curly shuffled and managed to get up again. Two more hits put him down. He stilled and I headed towards him, but only had gone a few yards before he was up and moving again, although not fast. Shot 5 stopped him and he dropped over with shot 6 and that was it.
All shots were quartered away, two behind left shoulder, one behind the right. There were two shots mid body, one on each side. All 5 of these shots did not exit. Last, there was a shot to the lower left rear leg (believe it to be shot #2).
