I've always been a big fan of military "subtlety."

The M855 stuff has a steel core but i still don't know if it would penetrate a boar's skull in a frontal shot. I wonder if there are any pig hunters here that can share some perspectives on what they prefer to use. 5.56 is really optimized for coyote sized game.

Not that I'm taking sides, not that I agree with all of his close to 8,000 posts, but because he backs up what he says and what his opinions are. If he's wrong, he admits it. Good $hit in my books, I enjoy reading his posts. Thanks snipe.
Thanks man- again.

Rest assured if i'm ever anywhere near BC you'll be getting a phone call from me.

You seem like seriously good people.
