No exit on the hog, and I never did find the bullet. Plenty of internal damage. It was a double-lung shot, and he only ran about 40-50 yards after the hit - which hogs will do even when shot through the heart.

I would not use a Game King on a larger hog, especially a boar. Their armor plate can do strange things to standard cup and core bullets, especially in smaller calibers.

I was only carrying the 243 for coyotes as I'd already bagged another boar with my 338 RCM. The pig I shot with the 243 was merely a target of opportunity.
