Keep velocity around 2700 to 2800 FPS
Use a 60 gr or greater bullet (Hint Nosler 64 gr bonded bullet)
Keep range less than 200 yds
16" BBL will easily achieve this
Aim straight and have some fun!
In tight quarters I would not want anything longer than 16".x007x wrote:He told me he will be hunting hogs majority of the time. At the end of this month he is going hunting hogs out of a helicopter. Sounds fun to me.
