Frankly, about 99% I never shoot more than once since the pigs are generally gone like ghosts after the first shot. I'm thinking that'd be a pretty good pig/blind gun. What do you think? "An archer sees how far he can be from a target and still hit it, a bowhunter sees how close he can get before he shoots." It is certainly easy to use that same line of thinking with firearms. -- Unknown

Indeed - they made a few #1A's in .257 Roberts, it would be easy to rebore one to the .270 Ingwe. "...the designer of the .270 Ingwe cartridge!..."

Yeah, there are a few on Gun Broker, more RSIs than anything, though. And Cabela's Gun Library has one or two.

Yeah, but from what I understand they'll only hit a heart/lung shot on a wild pig. That doesn't do me any good at all.
