    If its all about shot placement, then Ive shot a 190lb wild boar with a .22 rimfire.

    Heres an example of an even bigger boar, somewhere approaching 300lb and my little BRNO 22

    Guns are deadly! no matter what the calibre or case.

    Are they all equal though and will the New heavy projectiles give performance similar too bigger calibres?

    Crawling under the mingimingi at 8.45am in December when the dogs have been bailing a brute of a boar you do it with a 44mag using 240gr. All you see it a big black blob as it turns towards you. It ends up weighing 189lb. We spent the night under the pines covered in pine needles to keep warm.My mate dragged his dogs around him as well to keep warm. Straight up 1.5 hours to walk to top. Took my mate years to find out how I carried out the boar. Frank Robinson is a top bloke. LOL.
