    I have many rifles and set ups good for hogs . I try to use as many different ones as I can , or what set up would be best for the time . I was night hunting with a 30 cal AR with a thermal . Not the best set up for real quick close up shots [ ask Ovidio ] , that is why I had the 10mm Glock also . A shotgun is not going to make a 80 + yard shot in tall grass in the dark . It would be fine for a close up charging hog , but would made a poor 2nd back up weapon when using a rifle . After 270 hogs , this was only my 2nd charge . So it is not very common .

    I meant for a charging pig Bob as better for just a point & shoot at close range 9 x 38 calibre pellets per shell V's 1 single 10mm the pistol really gives you no margin for error or a jam!
    I understand the limitations of a shotty used my SKB semi auto as stated sometimes in light scrub the load then was 3 x sg & 2 slugs
