I haven't done much hunting with my Grendel this fall/winter, but did take it out to west Texas this weekend. Hunting off a cliff on the south side of the Colorado river, I sat for exactly 3 hours seeing only 2 coyotes that were between 300-400 yards out.
The last few minutes of daylight I hear limbs cracking below the cliff. Then I hear splashing in the river. Hands on the rifle, and eyes trained in the direction of the sound, I see a boar emerge almost directly across from me on the north side of the river. He's slightly quartering away at 70 yards and partially obscured by a small mesquite tree. Thankfully with the Trijicon's illuminated reticle he's easy to make out and I let loose one 120gr TTSX. I watched him run approx 50 yards paralleling the river then fold and flop.
He was a young, but very healthy boar. Taped out to 210lbs. Always impressed with the Grendel and this JP Enterprise rifle it's chambered in.
