Yeah try that 44 gr behind a 150, it's ONLY 5 gr OVER Hodgden published max. Their max fps is less than 2600. but WTF they only MAKE the powder and actually test it in proof barrels. 130 TTSX and 36 gr of 4198 will get you 2800 and leave your 99 intact and kills a lot bigger things than little porkers.

Why don't you check out Barnes number 3 for 130 X bullets (we ain't talking 150's). Just because you have a pointy head don't make you sharp.
Barnes 44gr H4895 130gr X bullet 2945fps

This fall a pard shot this piggy running (yeah, a little far back, though it mussed up the liver angling) with a 30/168 TSX from a 300 Winny. Didn't go 10 yds. I won't share the load data, for fear of confusion on numerical powders and charges...

I keep hearing about these quick kill liver shots, never personally made a shot like that so I had no idea...
You need to call it. I can't call it for you.

No shiit [bleep] bird, but it don't have the 300 Savage in it.

Thanks for the TSX's info for the 300 Savage, I had to find an old copy of Barnes book #3 to use book since they dropped the 300 savage in book #4.
