Hunting Hogs

[browningautorifle]

With 5.56 I wouldn't go small bullet, but use a soft point. I've taken deer without trouble with 55 gr soft point. As for the .308 ammo, a 150gr soft point should be fine. The name brands should all be about the same.

Jim, That's good ammo hope i find some locally. I need to find some HC nasty Ammo. The Backhoe is broke so I cant get too wild like last time, they were all so mad I guess they were much more ****ed at those darn hogs. I got so lucky but that was a great idea, Thanks (I will modify them myself.

I'm using my Ruger 30 Carbine BlackHawk with Critical Defense Ammo. just have to be careful i've had shell expansion before

Whereabouts in Texas are you? I live 1/2 hr. North of Dallas but I'd sure be happy to give you a hand culling the herd, either day or night. I've got a few spare ARs if you need to borrow one.

Are you suggesting you'll cut tips off FMJ ammo? That can result in a stuck jacket in a barrel, be aware. It's not a regular occurrence but really CAN happen. Would be disastrous...
