[QUOTE="thethirdpig, post: 1674010, member: 42636"] Many of those mentioned are good with head shots. Think of Hogs as the thickest skinned animal you'll ever shoot. I shot a 250lb sow with 338Win. mag. behind shoulder with 200 grain Hdy soft point (standard copper jacketed bullet) and did not get an exit wound. I changed my loads to Nosler partitions. The key matter is the bullet choice. Barnes and Partitions are good penetrators. Use the most powerful rifle you have. If you plan to purchase; you can't go wrong with 338 WM. Good for anything on this continent. Remember though, the bullet. [/QUOTE]
