[QUOTE="Treeslug, post: 2004028, member: 115704"] yorke-1: I have a new 10mm Semi-auto that I intend to shoot hogs with. My new 10mm has a 6-inch bbl. My old 10mm is a carry pistol with a 3 1/2 inch bbl. Locked in a pistol vice, the short gun will shoot about two to three-inch groups at fifty yards. In my shaky old hands, I can hold a 6 in. group at 50 yds. My 6inch has a Trijicon RMR red dot sight and I am hoping to do better with the new sight and longer bbl. My longest kill to date was a hog at 100 yards with my S&W 460 shooting 535 gr. cast bullets. It was a sow weighing about 135 lbs and the bullet hit her in the neck and she barely shivered. I seriously doubt that I will attempt anything much farther than fifty yards because I like to kill them quickly and since I use the meat I don't like to shoulder shoot them. A shot behind the shoulders is sometimes all I have due to the brush, but I still prefer the neck shot. As you guys say, it kills them DRT. Or a Bang-Flop. [/QUOTE]
