Always an adventure and he brings me Throwback Mountain Dew! We headed down to Bosque County again after skipping last week, and as with our previous visits, the hogs were there right after dark.
We set up to watch two fields when he spotted the first hog. We had not even sat down yet. As the hog was working his way toward us, we just chilled until he moved into position - you can't beat that! Then things got better. While finishing up with the first hog, another was spotted. As we made our way toward it, two more were spotted. We shot the closest and the others didn't run. So we shot the next one and the last one didn't run and so we shot it. No doubt the favorable winds and use of suppressors helped keep the hogs from being spooked when we shot.
He was using a .270 Winchester, but I am still using a Grendel and using Speer TNT 90 gr. factory ammo from Federal. When jointly shooting, it is hard to say much about the lethality as the boar may be killed by either shooter, however, the TNT seemed to perform well enough and certain was accurate enough for making head shots at distance. I am not unhappy with this round yet!
