Big Boar Down
Big boar down. Well, big for our ranch considering it’s a low fence Texas hill country ranch. Shot was roughly 45 yards with my 6” FA M83/.44 magnum. Load was a 200 grain XPB over Enforcer at 1650 fps. I hit the hog on the high side and clipped his spine. Never took another step. Weighed 218#.- Big Bore

Mom's Worst....

Who handgun hunts and what do you use?
I handgun hunt exclusively and have for about 20 years now. First, if you ever want to talk, send me a PM and we can exchange numbers. Secondly, for deer, bear, hogs, a 44 will do everything you want without the excessive recoil. The calibers you mentioned are great and I own each but I’d ask... -

44 magnum with a heavy cast bullet. 10 mm is a fine deer/thin skin round but it isn’t normally a grizzly stopper.- Big Bore
