While the hunt isn’t always difficult, the mount can be quite impressive. I just finished this one up from an Oct hunt on our South Texas ranch.

Javelina are very interesting...highly social creatures. Nice mount.

I hunt them in Arizona where they are considered big game, so all regulation that apply to deer, elk, sheep, and other big game apply. So no feeders and fair chase only. I also use a pistol, granted it is a Thompson Center Contender in 7-30 Waters I have also taken them with a 44 mag, 41 mag, 357 mag, and a 40 S&W.
We find them quite challenging at times, if they wind or spot you you'll be in for a long hike trying to get back onto the herd. We do mostly spot and stalk. We know canyons that they like and a lot about their habits when the weather is bad or windy. After 30 years we still find it fun and enjoyable.
Nice looking mount and congratulations on it.

Yeah mess with one and the whole pack will come for you. Those teeth snapping at night can be very eerie!! They can mess up a pack of hog dogs quickly.
Unlike hogs, where the whole pack will scatter, all for themselves

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
