Tikka Report post Posted February 14, 2019 Just returned from my first Javelina Hunt... let me just say you guys that live in Arizona, I’m a little jealous everywhere I’ve been in your state has been really enjoyable... Anyhow back to the hunt, day one my first 20 minutes and I passed 2 pigs at 60yds... I didn’t want it to end that soon... well little did I know that could have been the wrong decision... Saturday morning comes around and we spot 3 more fighting and chasing each other up and down a hillside... well I miss them 3 times at ranges from 220-330yds... I wouldn’t see anything else until Monday morning... Monday we wake up to a little snow on the ground with high hopes for some good tracking... well the snow didn’t provide anything fresh as far as tracks go and the wind was terrible... I just about called it quits for the morning when I glasses up two Javies about 1500yds out... so off I went and got into 120yds and the rest is history... i had a great time as always... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted February 14, 2019 What did you shoot it with? Javelina can be very unpredictable. In the future, I would suggest not passing opportunities on them! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the future, I would suggest not passing opportunities on them! I used the Rem ultimate muzzleloader in .50 cal. I know it’s always a gamble, I just didn’t want the hunt to end before it really even began... I don’t think I’ll do that in the future... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
