[QUOTE="rjmarine, post: 712770, member: 30201"] well porker you found that guy that will tell he does not like big medium bore guns on pigs. there is a storie why. i have hunted well over a 100 hogs over the years and all fell to shotguns but a few. most were 20g slug at night with dogs on a ranch that we may or may not of had permission to be on lol. of those 1 or 2 with a 45 colt 1911. these are all at 10-20 ft. i have never even shot a wild boar with a rifle in any size . the rifle in the pic you ask about is 22" barrel now that being said you will find many rifles that will fill that need . it will come down to what you like not what i like. this thing about flat shooting is all hog wash learn your gun and where to hold over and there all the same. none repeat none of them are lazers you will need to hold over at 300 yrds if it is a 338 win mag or a 358 win. 1 will just have a little different hold over . so who really cares if they need to hold over 8 1/2" @ 300 yrds or 9" with the rifle sighted in @ 200 if you like to reload and get the enjoyment out of shooting a gun you had custom made and using your custom loaded rounds like i do then a gun like i wrote about is ideal. but if you do not like to load then this is the wrong rifle so you it will come down to what you like and need in the end.
