That is a big pig!  Would want a heavy calibre and steady nerves to hunt him on foot at night.

Couple of hamps (Hampshire - with the white belt over the shoulders) and one big boar.  Bet he would be 5-600 lb.

Would it be better during the day?  Make sure there is a large and comfortable tree within reach.

If you want to give it a shot, I'll lend it to you.  I'll even watch the proceedings from the nearest tree.

Give me a "fully OPERATIONAL" light saber and I'll take you up on that...

Fully operational can mean all sorts of things.

Personally, I am definitely in magshooter's camp on this one, but if you want to stop by with your 458, that's good too.
