    30 cal. 190 gr sub-X recovered from pig, about 45-50 kg on Friday. 10 gr Trail Boss, 16.5” Bergara takedown rifle, DPT suppressor. Shot was about 62m slightly quartering away behind front leg, recovered bullet was just breaking skin on off-side. Pig dropped on spot. Usually use 151 gr cast bullets which work well but trying these to see how they go, ok so far on goats and pig. Nice and quiet.
