Old game warden who was stationed down in the area of south Texas where we hunt, his "go to" nilgai rifle was a Ruger #1 in .220 Swift. He was from up here in this area and I knew him long before he became a warden. I miss him.
I bet some here on the 'fire who hunt down there knew him too!
Knew a game warden here who favored the .220 swift for Bison.
Frankly Id use my 223AI on an upcoming nilgai hunt if I could find an outfitter who would let me!
