Thread: A good calibre on pigs

really depends on shot placement I guess, hit a soft spot they will pencil through and it's down to luck if you hit vitals and do enough damage to drop em fast, hit a boney shoulder and likely they will blow up, neither is ideal in my experience.....anyway I'm sure others will probably argue differently but I tend to use what in my experience works.
I don't target pigs but both the ones I have shot between 140 yards and 160 yards dropped on the spot with ELDX 145gn out of my old 270win.
neck shots will do the business or if you can try shoot them just below the ear broad side and they will drop like a sack of spuds
