[QUOTE="manitou, post: 1691248, member: 105280"] Possible poor bullet performance. When we used to go pig hunting as a group, my buddies would bring the whole "arsenal", from 5.56, .243, 30-30, 7mm08, 30-06, .308, .300 WM, .338, 45-70. They all killed well. We would have reloading get-togethers prior to going on the hunts. The right bullet is a beautiful thing. Some of the most "impressive" wounds were with the lowly 30-30 and Leverevolution tipped ammo... sometimes leaving a nearly soccer ball sized exit. Saw quite a few killed with 5.56, DRT. Not saying this is your case, but proper bullet placement makes a big difference. Lot of folks go "hog wild" and shoot poor angles with less than ideal bullet placement. [/QUOTE]
