This is an excellent choice for a rifle for hog hunting.
But how concerned should one be with only having 4 or 5 shots available with slow reloads and having to pull your sights off target to cycle the the next round.....assuming your first shot misses it's mark?

I am not concerned at all. I would be far enough away that I wouldn't have to worry about a "charging wild boar."
