Only place to shoot a hog. Well done. I hit one high with my '06 and the bullet went up the crown peeling hide to the skull but didn't penetrate. Big Russian Boar, Black, Fat, right out of the marsh here. He flopped around like the bullet went in but I saw the hide fly, knew it was a scratch shot. 165gr Ballistic Tip, hand loaded to 2900 with some IMR 4350. Hot, maybe too hot. Back then BT's were new, if they weren't really Cookin' they didn't expand well. Flew well all day but didn't expand. I load Accubonds now, they do it all.
