Ted- went on a private area farm for feral pigs last year. The owner is a real "rifle nut" in the Elmer keith school- as he was going to AK in the fall, he wanted to test his .416Rigby BA-- I usually use my 30-06 with 180 Grain Core-Lokt's, but tried the M71 Winnie in .348--we shot 3 pigs that am, 2 more in the evening hunt, over about 180 acres of planted farm land and near a feeder, from tree stands-- during the field dressing op- we could see the bullet channel, entrance and exit holes- most impressive. Just wish the ammo for the .348Win was more available. To quote the late Mr. Keith- "You mean it kills them too dead?"" RWTF
