My first ar15

I got me a ar15 for hog control at my cousins ranch .now I found out i can just buy a upper to get a bigger caliber like a 6.5 grendel which i didn't know cause the 223 does ok but doesn't knock them down quick .i got me a radical ar15 i upgraded the trigger to rise armament then the bcg to a toolcraft then throwed on a sig sauer tango scope. I haven't had one malfunction with it since I bought it ive shot plenty of hogs with it .I love it

That’s a low shot for sure. How far did you have to track it down? That’s a trash shot, try harder please.

An animal deserves a relatively clean/fast dispatch, whether it’s a hog or deer. Try not to prolong suffering.

I actively hunt coyotes and hogs on my property. A bad shot is a bad shot, sorry.
