    I am also interested. I have talked to some people on both the shooter side and outfitter side about this. There are details to consider like bringing your own gun or using the outfitter's guns.

    I know one place strongly suggested/required the use of a brass catcher for your AR so your brass doesn't get thrown into the helo or onto the pilots.

    I’ve done one before and can’t recommend it enough. I don’t know what outfitter was used, it was someone some farmers/ranchers we were working with hired to do some population control on their land. I used a Benelli M4 with 00 buck and that’s what I would recommend. It would be fun to use an AR but it would be much more difficult IMO. Shooting out of a moving helicopter is more difficult than I expected and using a shotgun was very helpful.

    Ended up taking down like 25 hogs and a few yotes when I went up
