A hog from Tejon Ranch

[StoneTower]

I had a box of 120gr TTSX that I was going to use, but then I saw PA_ALLEN's load and I liked the increased speed as it shoots a lot flatter. The fact that these things hold together so well the extra speed is a big plus. If a 6.5 bullet hits a hog and goes completely through but does not expand, it does not matter if it was 50gr or 250gr. The bullet will make a 6.5mm diameter hole. It is important that the bullet does what it is suppose to and expands. If the velocity is too low, the bullet will not expand leaving a 6.5mm hole on exit. If you get one of these things to expand, it will leave a 2 1/2 exit hole. YMMV The other reason I chose his load is that he has the same LW barrel at the same length. He also was kind enough to include the drop chart for the 20" LW barrel which let me go to the range 2 days before (only one trip of 64 miles round trip) the trip and be ready to go. Thanks again PA_ALLEN
