I had a group of pigs come in around midnight. I made a horrible shot and hit this one on the hip and came out in the guts. I couldn’t believe when she dropped in her tracks. I was hunting with my 350 Legend and have recently started using the Browning 155gr BRX ammo. This combination is turning out to be one of my favorite and really did a great job last night.

The only bad shot is one that doesn't take the piggy down! Good work, and keep after them.

Just like Jesus, sometimes you gotta kill some hogs.

Gotta love that kind of terminal performance. Good job.

ALL's well that ends well smile That round ought to make a loud enough WHOP when it hits to scare'em to death. smile Keep up the good work.
P.S. How is the recoil in an AR rig?

The recoil isn’t bad at all. Very fun to shoot.

Which BCA upper did you get? Thinking about throwing the dice on one myself.

I got a 18” heavy barrel 1:16 twist upper. It has been a good upper. I got it on sale for $219.

Well today they are about $100 bucks more than that. Are magazines hard to come by or expensive?
