Guys i do not have the video equipment to film a hunt, although I wish I did. Most shooters are using buckshot but I tried it the hard way. The pilot is very careful about his flying and at no time made any rash moves or got too low to the ground. He paid total attention to where we were at all times and I advised of movement of the hogs so as to not distract him from his job. Yeah I am still pumped up a day later and just waiting for the next run.

I have 2 DPMS .308 rifles so will probably just swap the Eotech to one of them. Most times the .223 is enough but since they are not standing still and running their adrenaline is up making them harder to drop. Also used a mesh hull catcher to keep the empties out of the blades or rear prop. Would really like to try the R25 in 7mm08 but hate to remove the scope as it is dead on and those shells are expensive. May give the Ar15 one more try as I have 240 rounds of 68 gr. coming for it.

If anyone gets to try this I reccomend a vertical fore grip as this makes it a lot easier to handle the rifle.
Juggernaut that would sure make it a lot easier but would take all the fun out of it.

Went up with a friend this morning in a Bell B47 after hogs. Took Ar-15 with Eotech sight and 80 rounds of ammo. Only got 6 confirmed hogs down but shot all the ammo and had one heck of a time. All the hogs took multiple hits to keep them down so the 5.56x45 is a little light. Pretty tough shooting with running hogs and moving chopper but what an adrenaline rush. Will get another chance in a couple of weeks.
If any of you get a chance to do this I highly reccomend it. Now all I need to do is hit the lotto, buy a chopper, hire a pilot and get after it. Oh yeah and buy more ammo.
