I don't recall if I posted this before, guess senior moments are getting closer together now...........
One Shot took this beast down. Used a Marlin 1895 GS guide gun and loaded a 450 grain Barnes solid brass bullet behind 45 grains of Hornady H335. Muzzle velocity calculated at 1594 fps giving 5257 ft-lbs of energy. The guide said he never saw a boar go down like that. All he did was shudder and collapse on the spot. Good clean kill. shot was at 45-50 yards used a 2.5 x 28mm Leupold scout scope. I am ready fro Moose or Brown Bear. Hunting for an outfitter in BC or alaske for next year. Anyone wanna join me?
