Source?

I'd be interested in the source too. Wonder how much pig hunting those boys do too.

"rumored to be manufactured by Barnes Bullets, is made of solid copper (pure copper, all the way through) and weighs 70 grains, as opposed to the 62-grain M855 ball round."

Very informative article.

Really? I would’ve thought an expanding bullet like that would be a Hague violation


What that Dickhead Mr. Hague and whore dog Geneva don't know wont hurt 'em, it actually helps 'em ; ]

I'm sure the Jihadis are all worried about "civilized" combat.

I suppose I’m just an old stick in the mud but I have no issues killing hogs DRT with Winchester factory 55 grain PSP.

Im sure mileage will vary amongst shooters.

I’ve killed many with arrows launched at 300 fps. Pigs kill easy if hit in engine room. I think I’m gonna get my bow out now, launch a few!

Appreciate all the responses !!!

Thinking hard on the 60 grain NP's that I have on hand or a Barnes TSX that'll load and run through a standard AR mag.

You can’t go wrong with either. I hit a 220 pounder in his shoulders at 225 yards with a Bear Claw, broke both, kept going. Partition just as good.

If you already have partitions - use them. They work great too.
