Morning my friend,
There is a member on GTA name Bullfrog (Travis) he has a company that makes mounts so your camera looks through the scope,
I didn't like it set up that way so I turned it upside down and backwards and that way I can mount the camera on top.

With a properly placed shot to the noggin through the ear, any sized hog will go down with caliber low as a 22

Distance is a key factor also. You have to take distance and fpe into consideration. 30yds with 60fpe, probably so,
50yds with 60fpe would just piss them off.
A .22 cal short rifle can average about 60fpe, the .22 long can get closer to 140fpe or so.
Slugs or pellets are to be considered also.
If I can get the hogs to come back up to my place I've got a 94fpe condor ready. Raccoons are no problem at 50yds

Which suppressor and how much does it tame it. I NEED to get one for my .30 cause I need ear protection. Would love to quite it down some.

The long one is the DonnyFL Emperor and the short one is the DonnyFL Ronin. I use the Ronin on my FX Maverick .30cal pushing 90fpe, and it does a decent job. If you have a higher powered .30cal (like a Texan or something) then I'd suggest something Emperor sized.
Now here is the problem. DonnyFL no longer sells suppressors after the 3 letter agency visit. I don't know which company has comparable performance to it.

That's great to hear! I may order a .30cal Ronin, as my current Ronin core is really for .357.

it's all about shot placement, even a .177 inside 20 yards can drop down a hog. (with enough power)

I took a very similar shot at 50yds with my evanix rainstorm and 13.4g knockouts, lights out. 36fpe, and I love it. You are right too, outside of the airgun world they will not believe it.
