[QUOTE="joshf303, post: 2674830, member: 14267"] Hogs are WAY easier to kill than the internet leads on…no hog is going to walk away from any of the bullets mentioned here with a front 1/3 or high shoulder shot. Like always…placement trumps all… Thermal hunting, I grab the cheapest stuff out of the larder as I can instead of boutique loads/bullets. 200-300 rounds of FMJs a night sounds better to my wallet than the same of a reload with premium bullets. I’ve killed literally 10s of thousands of hogs through aerial depredation work back when I had a helicopter service. Had the opportunity to beta test several bullets from a couple manufactures in several chambering that are now available on the market. They didn’t kill any faster or more effectively than a 55 FMJ at 3100ish. Wound channels can be impressive if there is some bullet tumble, which the FMJ seems prone to do. Far as the Grendel…Wolf FMJs mostly for me. I’ll pick up bulk 123 FMJs when I can and run a big batch on the Dillion occasionally when I get in the mood. [/QUOTE]
