[QUOTE="happyfast79, post: 2293233, member: 119709"] First off I don’t hog hunt, so take this with a grain of salt. But I do hunt Elk and Deer and elk are tough critters. And if you want to stay at the ar 15 level and not step up to a large frame AR then these are my thoughts. I’ve killed multiple elk from 60-200 yards with my 458 socom, it’s a good heavy hitter short range (0-250.. maybe 300 yards with correct load to get good bullet expansion) round especially with the great bullets available for it ( if you reload and even if you don’t there are some great d factory loads out there) Barnes makes a 300 gr ttsx just for it that works wonderfully and all the 45/70 bullets work great for it. If you don’t reload the 450 bushmaster has cheaper ammo available for it. [/QUOTE]
