[QUOTE="del2les, post: 2444380, member: 9299"] For smaller hogs, say 200 and under, most any 44 cal bullet will suffice, but due to the occasional larger Southern hog/boar, I tend to stay in the 220-240 range with JSP and 240-250 in JHP, and years ago for lead bullets, I settled on a 245gr Keith gas checked and a 255gr SWC plain base. Both are heat treated and cast from wheel weights and dropped hot from the mold into a bucket of water. I have never recovered one from any animal shot with those from my Blackhawks, Redhawks, Contenders nor the 1894. [/QUOTE]
