(Last post was reference the cast bullets I bought, not the Speer Deep Curl)

Just letting y'all know - killed a really nice pig last night about sundown. About a 25 yd. shot. Used 19.7 gr. 2400, 240gr Speer Deep Curls, standard CCI primers. Bullet entered left side, took out the spine, and continued somewhere. This pig was probably 140 or so, and a very stout boar. Dropped right where I shot him. I was rather relieved to see him drop instantly after hearing all the horror stories of losing hogs due to bad shots/ammo/etc. Interesting note is blood on entrance wound was about the size of a quarter, exit wound about the size of a quarter, and NO blood on the ground. Sure glad I didn't have to track him!

I was at a ranch that caters to bowhunters, so it was nice to show that a responsible hunter with a handgun was "OK". The ranch owner had problems in the past with handgun "hunters" (meaning those who thought they were hunters).

So now I'm blaming all of you for getting me hooked!!!
