And I think they still shoot it centre fire as well. Hasting Deerstalkers had a Running Boar range from the mid 1970's until it broke down around 1990 and no one seemed interested or capable of fixing it. It was great fun. A mate and I used to swap the running boar pot between us using Ruger 10-22 Sporter rifles. We also ran shoots for school kids shooting targets from a rest with the same rifles. It was easier and safer to run as the kids didn't have to struggle with reloading, just line up and bang. Repeat as required. Each kid had one of us standing behind them to sort out any problems. A brick of .22 ammo just melted before your eyes.
