Tried out the Maker Overwatch Field .222 REX 62 Grain on 2 separate hunts last week to test it out. Now, I will tell you... this stuff ain't cheap!!! At $1.65 a round after shipping, I might go broke trying to take care of all the hogs in our area. I called around to several places to see if they carry it on the self but couldn't find any place that had it. Now I know Maker Ammunition isn't new and I know many serious hog hunters that using it with great results. In the video I'm using a .223 but I know that they this stuff in many different calibers. The funny part is that the box of ammo is just a plain white box, no name or anything at all on it.. haha! I was able to test this ammo out on a couple unsuspecting hogs with really good results under a couple different shooting situations...

Heard that this stuff was good too. Price is similar to Maker but this has the Barnes TSX and is also 62 Grain Hollow point
