UPDATE: Went back this morning to check, and the exit wound was maybe 1/2". Found the left front shoulder was dislocated when I tried to turn him over with it. The shot location, and the lack of any "dancing" when he went down probably means it got the spine, and maybe hydraulic shock got the shoulder joint???? I'll leave all that to DNS. MV on my loads is 2518 - 2525, and at 120yds (the range he was shot at) the bullet speed shows to be about 2336, energy 1737lbs. From the three yotes and two medium size boars I've shot so far, I'd say this bullet(123 ELD) is fine for killing critters. Probably just that,,,,,
"killing'em". May mess up some meat, but I don't eat boar meat anyway.
Maybe the backstraps off a nice clean small sow in cold weather
Not trying to clutter up the forum with chit chat,,,just passing on info.
