Not a handgun hunt but something I've been wanting to do for a long time. Check one off the bucket list. Four of 13 taken in a depredation hunt in Sweden last week. The wife got 2, I got 3, and my friend got 6, the depredation shooters took the rest. They are the equivalent of our feral hogs when it comes to damage and destruction of habitat and food sources. 2000# of fish eaten a year per each, so 26000 pounds saved this year by removing the 13. The big male in front is mine at 150kg, the middle 2 are the wife's and the smaller on the left is my friends taken for eating. Which is quite delicious.

Didn't get my bird, which means I need to go back and try again. Probably Norway next time, my Norge friends have all said hunting is better there for them, and to come later in the year when snow is on the ground. We did get a moose though, young two year old bull made for good eaten. We have had, bear, moose, fallow deer, caribou (reindeer), wild boar, seal, crayfish, shrimp, crab, mackerel, and the fermented fish that smells to high heaven. It was all delicious.
