Spring Boar Hunt – Double Tap AR 10 and AR 15

Wild Boar Hunting with Modern Sporting Rifle (MSR) –  Americas Best Selling Rifle, period.

Giant Boars Hunting  Double Tap

Bringing Plenty of firepower to a boar hunt is a wise idea. When spot and stalk boar hunting, you get up close and personal with a Raging Boar. Being prepared is key, you never know when you will come upon a Giant Boar bedded down or moving through the dark low parts of the forest.  Having your brother with you who is also equipped with an AR 15 makes for safer boars hunting.

A lot can happen when boar hunting. The best hunting tips is to be prepared for anything. Successful hunters are prepared for the unpredictable. The AR 10 is a great weapon that is as versatile as it is powerful. The LWRC AR 10 makes a .308 they call “The Reaper”, and with good reason… Having a pistol on your hip never hurts either, the more powerful it is the better. While the Wilson Combat 1911 isn’t  a traditional boar hunting weapon they can hold their own in close quarters.

I like Loading up before a hunt is this is important, especially fun with large magazines.

One of the best features of the AR 10s and 15s is the massive magazine. Thirty rounds of .308 means you can kill whatever you can hit. Even the Biggest Boar with all its armor and strength can be taken down with just one, or maybe a few, well placed shots. Extra firepower only increases the odds of slaying one of these primitive beasts.

It is recommend to test fire prior to conducting
Big Boars Hunting Adventures

Preparing the weapon and scope before a hunt is a critical first step. Despite all the firepower, shot placement is still crucial. Especially  when you are doing a Boar hunting adventure. Equipped with a bipod stand right in the front grip the AR 15 sights in. Making  less than a perfect shot when boars hunting can make tracking your quarry difficult.

The MSR are great for hunting.

The Boars, and especially Big Beasts are powerfully armored creatures. A large a shield behind the Boars shoulder protects the vitals giving them a strong defense. Over that is a thick hide and solid muscle. The larger the boar the thicker the development of the shield.   Boar hunting can be difficult because of this,  that means shot placement is everything no matter the caliber used. Lining up behind the shoulder in the center of the beast pierces the plate, ribs, and gets the legendary double lung shot.

Be prepared to test your set-up prior to Hunting

The spot and stalk method allow for close shots, many  between 25 to 50 yards. Qualifying the weapon at 30 to 35 yards lets you know what your bullet will do in these closer quarters. The Boar hunter focuses on their shot and where the gun is aiming, rather than thinking about where they should be aiming.

Binoculars are used to size up the Boars and
for checking your shot on the target

The spring Giant Boars Hunting adventures allow for easy visibility. The underbrush and leaves are packed down. Spotting the boars early on can provide you with the advantage.

Armed and ready for the hunt.

Hunting with family is a time honored tradition. The memories that are made and the stories that are told will be passed on from generation to generation.  Going wild boars hunting with your brother will be one of those special memories.

Wild boar live in many different environments.

The Boars  live in many different types of terrain.  The Upland Hardwoods forest is a good place for the boars to forage and root. Hidden valleys and hillsides are popular places to seek Genuine boar.

Enter the tag alders and hunt the boars in their lair.

The cedar forest is prime for Authentic boars hunting. In the forest  you can be a few feet away from a wild Boar that is buried in the swamp and never know it is there.  The forest entices the hunter into the unknown.

Piglets, Piglets

The spring is also the time when the piglets are roaming the land. These lottle guys are born to smart sows who watch over them. Check out the camouflage that protects the young.  Getting close to the piglets is not suggested, you never know when the momster is waiting to charge.

Nice boar taken with LWRC .308 AR10.

The LWRC Reaper claimed its first Wild Boar on a cool crisp spring day in the sunshine.  Up on top a hill the Jesse set his sights on a large dark boar. The shot was taken at 30 yards.  When the boar stepped into a small opening he sent forth The Reaper to harvest the boar.

Not long after one shot was fired taking down the boar another group appeared in the distance. This time it was brother Andy’s turn to choose a boar. A group of Trophies class boars slowly moved into range, looking through the foliage. From the same hill Andy crept to a small stand of trees for a better rest for the AR 15. As the herd moved through, it was just a matter of finding a great boar that would give a good shot with nothing in the way.

Armed to the teeth.

In the end he chose the last boar coming through just as his brother did. He fired one shot and hit the pig in the lungs. Despite delivering a lethal shot the pig moved well for being shot and when the boar cleared the other pigs he fired another shot ending the event. Andy’s boars hunting adventure got him a large chested and big toothed beast. The .308 AR 10 also scored pass threw shots on both pigs – every boar hunters dream shots.

AR15s are fast shooting weapons with a variety of calibers,
many of which great for boars hunting.

The AR 10 platform makes a great hunting weapon, it is clearly great on th boars. AR  10s and 15s come in a variety of calibers and features that no other weapon can match. With the ability to pick your poison and get as powerful as you need for your hunt you can come prepared. Another great feature is ability to attach many different tools such as optics and grips to your gun. You can truly customize an AR for the hunter using it. There are also many calibers bigger than the .308 that are great for boars hunting. The .308 is the beginning of the great pig calibers, but they don’t make one too big for boars hunting. On this hunt The Reaper .308 claimed two excellent boars.

Giant Boar Double Tap

Brothers Jesse and Andy had the hunt of a life time taking on the Giant Boar of the Great Northern Forest. Getting to share the experience together and take two great pigs from the  same hillside makes there hunt very unique and special. Armed with plenty of firepower the brothers were able to conquer the wild boar, and will be heading home with coolers stuffed with a true delicacy.

Boar hunting is a truly unique hunt, and true authentic Boar are incredibly rare in the United States. These animals are popular on the hunters’ Bucket list.  The Vera brothers are focused on filling their list. A genuine Boar hanging on the trophy pole makes for a great story that may be retold many times.

Time to Relax after the hunt and enjoy all
the creature comforts of the lodge.

After the hunt many hunters enjoy kicking back and relaxing, enjoying everything the Lodge has to offer. Having a dinner of wild boar is a great way to cap off your hunt.  Enjoying the dinner table with new friends,  retelling the stories, the close calls, and the shots after a hunt is a time honored tradition. Genuine Boars hunting adventures are not easily forgotten and many hunters return  for another crack at slaying the giant boar.
