Okay, it was a small pig, but right now I am not getting my choice of sizes of pigs on which to test Federal's MSR Fusion 120 gr. ammo. It seems to perform as advertised based on what I have seen so far. I have yet to recover a bullet, however.
Got do do a thermal retest of looking at blood trails. Previously, I had caught the spray from a shot on the side of an old Suburban. Some folks scoffed at the validity of noting that blood cools rapidly when it is on a metal surface. While I can't disagree with the critique regarding the appropriateness of the surface (metal), I thought this video shows a realistic cooling of a blood trail on the ground, particularly from a blood dump via a heart shot. Inside of a minute the blood trail has almost completely cooled. I would have been hard pressed to get to the shot location that quickly to find the blood trail had I needed to track the hog, LOL. Fortunately, she did not go far.
