Gents,
I really support the hog hunting. They are Not what anyone would call natural wildlife.
Just be sure to carry a BIG 45 or 44 for emergencies. Please be careful.
Boars like that can have YOU for lunch.

Re: Remington Model 14 in 25 Remington
There's a great 25Rem article in Ken Waters "Pet Loads" book from Wolfe publishing. Honestly the old Handloader issues are an stellar resource. If you can't find them at the used book stores, they can be bought on CD from the Publisher.
WalyWorld and Barnes and Noble carry the latest issues.

Pitchy,
I like the ones with saddle rings. Nice forearm too, a little trueoil might make the grain pop. Course you could prefer the factory finish.
My Brother and I got his twin a Browning BLR 300M (takedown) last year for his diligence while Mom was in end of life trails. It's pretty.

It's not a 41 R sight, but the one for straight sided receivers.
