Still ciphering, but it could be a 6.5 PRC, or 270 WCF, or a 6.5 Creedmoor.

DD - I like the Contender Carbine! What caliber?

My "favorite" hog gun us a Contender with .44 mag 14" barrel, topped with a suppressor as long as the barrel, and mounted in a carbine stock. I normally shoot sub-sonic hard cast bullets of 335 gr, and it is deadly at up to 75 yards. Twice have killed two "pigs" with one shot! Used a 3x9 variable on it - just switched to an EOTech holographic.

Keith Warren kills them with an air rifle. Had a show doing that at night using a kill light. Had never seen or heard of this before.
Not ideal for sure.
