What will you (would you if you were going) take with you to the Pigmageddon hunt?
I can go as small as a 22lr or as big as a 175 grain 7mm Rem Mag. I've been talking to G2 about it. But figured I would open it up here. Online searches show a wide range of opinions. Buckshot to 300 magnums are all recommended.
I have a super light weight Kimber 8400 Mountain rifle. It is a 7mm-08 with a 1-4 × 24 scout style scope set up. I would shoot that with low recoil 120 grain Hornady Custom Lite. Unless it is going to be very dense. Then I would get the 140 Remington core lokt for the softer, fatter, proven brush-busting tip.
On the other hand, I have a .222 Rem Mag. It shoots hand loads with 50 grain Nosler bullets. Basically it is the equivalent of a long range coyote smacking .223 from a ballistics stand point. Very rare caliber handed down by my Great Uncle. This would be for head shots.
Or I may just go with the bow and my 44 mag pistol.
What do you guys think? What are you all taking?
