Anyone shot these? Any reviews on shooting hogs with them?

I have not but have you tried the Hornady 120 SST? The seem to be the gold standard on 68forum. I load them and they are very accurate for me. I've only shot one hog but the 200 lber was DRT on a broadside lung shot.

I have shot them as well just curious about the 6.8 110 grain gunner. I am shooting out of a 10.5 in barrel so was trying to gain a little speed with a lighter bullet.

The lighter bullets seem to really shine out of 6.8 SBRs. 110 is light compared to a lot of .277" offerings, but there are bullets as light as 85gr available.

I love the Federal XM68GD 90gr loads in my 12.5", and I'm trying to get my hands on some of the Speer 90gr TNTs to load up for it.

I just bought 200 rds of the Federal xm68 I've just been trying out a lot of different stuff. Once I got enough brass I'm gonna have chad load me up some 90 gr hollow points.
