Dealing with electronics always seems to introduce another avenue of failure into activities, even if they are necessary. Sometimes, the problem is with the user. This hunt was plagued with two, seemingly unrelated events, but I don't know if me taking everything apart and putting it back together created the 2nd problem or if it is an unrelated glitch or potential scope failure. Time will tell. The first problem was my fault, not keeping a battery fully charged.
First hog down was a nice head shot at 160 yards. The show impacted a tad lower than I would have liked, but the bullet apparently caught the lower portion of the cranium and caused sufficient brain damage. The SST 123 gr. bullet exited out the opposite side. The 2nd hog was shot through the front of the shoulder at 250 yards and the SST 123 gr. bullet exited behind the opposite shoulder. I suspect there was spinal involvement.
I have shot a variety of bullets into hogs, but I keep coming back to SST 123s (and TNT 90s). They just seem to be all around decent performers.
