Thread: Hornady Sub-x

Some of the Lehigh machined expanders or similar like the discrete ballistics 188 selious rounds increase the lethality a bit, but really I hate tracking animals so want instant humane shots that anchor the pigs(brain or CNS) Sub-x is great and convenient but no more effective than Roberts 151gr, Iv chest shot a large angry running pig in which I suspect I got a hilar area hit as it crumpled mid step and was completely immobilised, far more effective than I thought cast lead projectiles could be at such a low impact speed.
I try sticking to if you were to stab it where you are aiming with a knitting needle would it instantly die.
With bullets expanding and causing a larger wound channel it gives you a little lee way for the wobbles and the animal moving.
I feel terrible when things run off injured and that's very possible using subs and shooting things in the normal effective spots, used carefully Tho it's amazing what they can do
