[QUOTE="Kiwi Nate, post: 364974, member: 8533"] Here are some pics regarding the hunt I was talking about re- taking a quick shot at 600 yards. A second client took this pic, I am just about to fire (on the left), pig has climbed onto the track across the valley and is making its way along the track as it is the easiest escape with such a large wound. Note the dog in his usual position. [IMG]http://lh3.ggpht.com/_Y39hCUjruqE/S4D7nbFRLBI/AAAAAAAAAEw/QBD4WGJR3x8/s640/IMG_0368%20compressed.JPG[/IMG] The pig is a good size for roasting. Some clients want eating size pigs, others will stay a while longer and look for a trophy boar. The body weights tend to vary widely. In this pic you can see how the first shot struck the rear ham (frontal shot from above, POI between shoulder blades). The bullet grazed pelvis, exited down by tail)- the rifle suffered a shift in POI due to a very soft plastic stock. The second meat saver shot is mine from the 7mmRUM.
