We haven't done much hunting in the last 8 weeks but we did manage to make it out this weekend to do some work. Slipped out on the river Saturday night and encountered this 200lb boar at approx. 150 yards.
This was the first hog taken with the new JP upper and the first hog with a 123gr. Hornady SST. This round definitely got the job done, the round hit him square on the shoulder and he ran 20 yards and flopped. I looked as best I could but did not find an exit wound, which is something I've grown accustomed to using Barnes TSX's in the past. The JP upper likes Hornady's better so that's its sole diet now.
