Hog Hunting with 300 Hammer Trail 2 LRF XP50

Texas pest control with the Trail 2 LRF XP50 and the 300 Hammer.

[@OmarCotter]

So good to see you back out there doing what we love watching you do!

[@dzhitshard]

My favorite caliber. Has a very favorable sound signature and suppresses extremely well.

[@danielthompson3837]

Love my HAM'R!!! Glad to see you back.

[@ploptoken]

Glad you're back on your feet, thanks for the video!

Glad to see you back out there making bacon!

[@TheAcfallejoseph]

I give you more thumbs up if I could

[@downrangederek1790]

Been missin you uploading! Always love watching and dreaming of the night when I’m out there slaying with some gear like you have😎👍

[@wnblair]

Always glad to see you drop another video.

[@rnginu59]

Great video! This is the first I have heard of the 300 Hammer.

[@TheAcfallejoseph]

Favorite hog Channel. Man he lays them down

[@AlbertBellgardt]

Love my hammer on the hogs as well! Used it the past 2 years! Runs great with the blackout mags! That looks like a pretty short barrel for that ammo though.

[@garyc3936]

Hope you show us the 8.6 in action soon, Kevin B mentioned you’ve been putting it to work

[@CDIFactor]

One of my favorite rounds behind the 6.8 and 7.62x39 and ammo is readily available.

[@tcmoney1321]

My 300 ham'r is extremely accurate. 2600fps w 130 speer hollow point and 2772fps with 110 vmax

What powder? I'm looking very seriously at one of these. Seems ideal

Looked like some nice size pigs, great shooting.

Man that round can drop some hogs!

[@MD-mm1zv]

Sweet, sweet gear, sir. That scope reminds me of something Luke Skywalker would use. Expensive?

[@ryandrakes9925]

Awesome Shooting.

What Load of the Ham’r were you shooting?

[@louisianacruisin4753]

Love the classic content

[@camojoe83]

There seems to be a distinct lack of 'thwack' with these short thirty bores. They're great at shotgun ranges, but hogs get tough real fast with range.

[@rp7r54]

Cold Cut Ham

[@maxchalice5625]

Speaking of calibers, I heard a little birdie say that you might have an 8.6 blackout laying around there. Any videos on that coming out?

[@LoneStarBoars]

I’ve been killing with that for about a year

[@samael1981]

You must have been doing this forever. You damn near smoked those entire first two sounders! I think you did.

[@LoneStarBoars]

I’ve killed one or two.

[@PH_INFO_101]

​@@LoneStarBoars I think we should officially change your name to Todd "Humble" Huey

[@craesh1001]

Just make sure he uses the black rifle arms improved firing pin for that 7.62x39. That’s the major thing I’ve found while running that caliber that makes all the difference in reliability.

[@LoneStarBoars]

Major thing I found is dura mags!

[@craesh1001]

@@LoneStarBoars yes they are a must! The others just don’t feed well.

[@tacticalmattfoley]

That hits hard.

[@davemoreno4323]

I love my XP50. Nice shooting!

[@backpi]

Mighty fine job sir. 😊👍🏾

[@duanehenicke6602]

Looks like a decent round. I still don't know how you make your hogs stop running once you start shooting. It's almost like they are impressed as we are, and want to stop and watch. Last hogs i shot in to are still running. And that was months ago!!!!

[@LoneStarBoars]

A lot of the ones who stop are already hit and bleeding out.

[@ccmogs5757]

Great round , also liking the 30 RAR even with the low cap. mags :)

[@gsitzkowitz]

What load are you using?

[@chatnasty]

What length barrel is that? I've been deer hunting with an 18" Shaw Barrels upper.

[@dgax65]

The video quality is impressive.

[@chrishenicke2052]

Hell yeah!

[@TheHuntingGame]

You said the Hammer was all carbon fiber. I'm not familiar with anything carbon fiber on an AR platform. I'm sure it helps with weight, but anything having to do with the sound/vibration? Thoughts on the carbon fiber besides looks?

[@LoneStarBoars]

The normal plastic parts.

[@TheHuntingGame]

@@LoneStarBoars I know the whole thing isn't carbon fiber. Was just wondering if it makes that big of a difference in weight or if it is just for the aesthetics.

[@LoneStarBoars]

It’s supposed to be stronger.

[@Jesuscatshockey]

Did you hear that loonnggg squealer!? Was it one of first shot or one of the three charging towards you? Hearing that makes the viewing experience premium entertainment. That ammo made great impact sounds. These feral mofo's looked very well fed. Am I right? You gotta contact Netflix. Love binge watching this.

[@dzhitshard]

7.62xcommie is my 2nd favorite. I just hate the idea of trusting the AR mags and bolts for it.

[@LoneStarBoars]

I’ll take the x39 any day over the hammer

[@dzhitshard]

@@LoneStarBoars I get why a fella could say that. There are several plusses for me in the HAM'R, but if cheap BiMetal HP ammo supply would hold out I'd be fine shooting commiex39 out of my Mutants for the rest of my life. Unfortunately I'd bet $ that sniffy Joe and his puppeteers will be choking affordable import ammo off from those dang meddling Russians. "For the children"

[@LoneStarBoars]

Use the soft points.

[@dzhitshard]

@@LoneStarBoars I'll use them too. I still have a case of Tula and a partial case of Baurnal that I was a little underwhelmed with. They're what I started with after you sold me on the mutant. It seemed HP fragmented better on adults and the SP just stripped the jacket and yawed a bit. It could have been anecdotal with a small sample size. Either way I'm not afraid to use SP or HP x39 ammo on hogs as long as Joe Snuggles allows my peasant ass to keep buying it at $0.30 The only reason I stumbled on 300HAM'R was that I could load good performing projectiles in factory new brass for less than commercial Russian SP/HP ammo was moving off the shelves for. I do very much like the down range sound signature of the HAM'R though. I cant count the number of coyotes and pigs who've run straight to me or stuck around after I let a couple shots fly. Loaners and group. It occasionally happened before but it seems to happen pretty regularly since I've been shooting HAM'R.

[@randomidiot8142]

It would be nice if the barrel makers would headspace with grendel bolts instead of the commie bolts. Give us some better options.

[@mikebyrd9945]

Good shootin"!

[@mii3000]

Whenever I see a hefty hog hit the ground I think about having to lift that fella up onto a truck bed. How long does it take you to collect all of that bacon? Do you have a dog food processing plant that will take em? Or do you just let nature take care of them?

[@LoneStarBoars]

Picking them up wastes killing time.

[@kelvin5005]

Great shot mate

[@johnparog5434]

That 300 hammer was awesome , how do you think it compares with the 6.8 spc. For power and range.

[@LoneStarBoars]

I would go 6.8.

[@johnparog5434]

@@LoneStarBoars Excellent, that’s what I was thinking, thanks for your expert advice, most appreciated sir. Keep up the great up loads that you bring us.....thanks.

[@judgejimbobrowntown7600]

Quick question in pa it is unlawful to hunt deer with a .22lr because it is considered inhuman but you can drop a doe at 100 if you crack her in the head everything is about shot placement I was just woundering if there is any limit on piggies cuz I think I’ve seen hunts where dudes where using 223 to hunt for these pigs which is offly light ?

[@nickaiken1310]

Do you own a CMMG Mk47? Why not do something like that instead for 7.62?

[@LoneStarBoars]

Heavy

[@zacthegunguy899]

Please please please let me come hunt with you.

[@rich-lf1bm]

6:30, that’s a lot hogs

[@ChargerusPrime]

Actually, .300 HAM'R is more powerful than 7.62x39 but it works in an AR platform. .300 blackout isn't even in the same ballpark other than using a .30 caliber bullet.

[@LoneStarBoars]

I used the hamr it worked well. But for the volume of shooting I do the x39 price and performance works out.

[@ChargerusPrime]

@@LoneStarBoars yeah I hear ya, I really think HAM'R is the next big thing, or rather it will be once more manufacturers catch on. I also think the round would be perfect in military applications as well.

[@markspc1]

Hey Todd, I think you need a better rifle; lots of runaway pigs in this one. Pigs are tough and looks like 300 Blackout just does not do the job. Anyway, it was nice to see you back dropping pigs.

[@LoneStarBoars]

First two groups were wiped out third got out of range.

[@BigDmike24]

Save the brass.. I need it. Getting easier to find at least. Starline makes brass now. Any one use powder other than CFE Black? Be nice to know. Keep shooting fellas!! 👍👍

Крепление прицела нужно менять , лучше от ” MAK “ поставить . А то после каждого выстрела картинка на Экране внизу сбивается.

What’s up with the video messing up every time you fire a round? Is that normal?

[@LoneStarBoars]

Yes that is normal.

[@chrisgilbert2152]

My gawd.. YOU MAKE ME SICK!! Double and triple tapping and KILLING hogs!! I'm throwing up jealousy!!! What bullet?

[@anthonyrichard461]

I'm thinking 300 Hammer bullets are expensive?

[@anon2240]

They are about $1.50 per round from Wilson Combat. If you reload 300 Ham'r brass is $33.00 per hundred or $150.00 for 500 from Wilson Combat.

[@trayquarles6206]

That on full automatic would be bad ass

[@YhwhKhaiMostHigh]

The problem is these freakin' hogs multiply fast. I know you guys wish you could shoot all of them! They are destructive!

[@joracer1]

Can I get some pork chops?

[@autumnfragrance6326]

Not bigger than 300BLK. Same caliber and overall length.

[@KC9RXP]

Its 6mm longer case

[@ethonbell5181]

This proves to me the 300 hammer is no better than the 300 black out. The smallest caliber I’ll shoot pigs with is a 762x39. I’ve shot multiple pigs with the 300bo and they get up and run off. With the 39 or 308 they go 20yards tops

[@randomidiot8142]

Wonder if part of that is bullets when comparing x39 to the hamr. The lighter .308 bullets available aren't up to the toughness and penetration needed while the steel jacket sp/hp of the x39 is? Pretty sure the hamr can push 1-200 faster than the x39.

[@ethonbell5181]

@@randomidiot8142 I hand load the 39 i run 123 grn sst. i think the reason why there is such a difference is the .30 cal projectiles can be loaded from 300 black out to 300 win mag, so there are some universal jacketing and expasion used versus specific measurements and engineering. the .310 sst is designed for the 39 and they have specifically designed that bullet for that round. my shots are 40yards and in so when i hit them i want them to go down. i will run the .308 now exclusively unless i have a guest then they run that rifle while i run back up eith the 39

[@randomidiot8142]

@@ethonbell5181 yep. Like the Barnes 110 .308 bullets. One is designed for ridiculous impact velocity and one is designed for BO velocity. Switch them around and you get fragmenting bullets and bullets that don't/can't expand. Some bullet makers generalize slightly and design for a generic impact velocity window (ex 1800-2800 fps) and it's up to you to choose for your intended purpose. I know nosler and sierra simultaneously generalize and then deviate from generalizations though. Like the 'nosler ballistic tip' has varmint and game versions in the same weight/caliber with no outward change in appearance but they behave differently at the same speeds. A 123 .310/.311 nosler partition or accubond would be badass though..
