Eric’s Trophy

August 30, 2025

My friend Eric flew in to hunt hogs. He took this big guy at Manx Farm near Corsicana.



This hog was huge, estimated weight: 300lbs.


(FYI, the pig’s hide after it is tanned covers a foam form. This makes the shoulder mount fairly light weight, very easy to handle and to hang on your wall.)


The taxidermy was done by a local shop, TKO Taxidermy in Gun Barrel City.


Eric used the 338 Win Mag to take the hog. OSK (one shot kill). We stalked up to it as it lay still, maybe sleeping. It was a great shot, and the hog didn’t even get up. I load the ammo with the 250 grain Swift A Frame projectiles. This is a great round, a “premium” bullet which is very useful for larger animals.


Eric lives the Porcus Hogrelius Motto.
