Hello from the U.S.A

Ben, what is the rifle and calibre you use on the boar then?

George

George, the top photo (with pig) is a 6x45mm wildcat cartridge. Uses a 243 projectile in a 223 case. Loading 80 grain pills in that one.

The current configuration (yet untested with the n750) is a 6.5 Creedmoor. 264 projectile loading 140 grain pills on that one.

I was having a bit of an issue with the 6x45 on 100+ lb pigs. They received the bullet just fine to the head/neck, did the dance for a bit, and then they ran away.

I'm thinking they won't be running after taking one from The Double D (Digital Destroyer).

Thx,

Ben

Nice

You like the black rifle? What make is that?

George,

The 6x45 I built and the 6.5 Creedmoor started out life as a DPMS Arms 260 Rem but I pulled the barrel and bolt and stuck in a Criterion barrel. So its a mutt, but a fine one at that

I like the black rifle for hunting hogs, we overlook a cattle plot that has 500 yards of clearing so followup shooting is possible and safe.

For deer / turkey / other traditional game I use a bolt action, such as my dearly departed Grandfather's Winchester 670.

I have also been looking for a wood stock 22-250 for coyotes and smaller game, haven't found the right price yet.

Adios,

Ben
