Out on Monday night and this 275 pound boar came in up wind from the feeder. Been meaning for a while to take out the Wilson Combat 7.62x40WT with the Barnes 110gr TTSX bullets make for this caliber. Scope is my Armasight Zeus 3x 640 75mm. Wasn't comfortable by this lift while it was fully extended, but my ATV had no gas so I used the truck

I'm getting 2530 fps with the 110gr bullet out of my 14.7". The barnes bullets made for the 7.62x40WT are made to expand at lower velocities than 308 bullets.
