Recovered the first bullet to actually stay in a hog today. 129 gr Barnes LRX still had 100 grains intact and embedded in the shield on the off side. 2” of shield, shoulder blade and spine destroyed and a rib on each side as well as another 1 1/2” of shield, mushroomed to just over .75”
Needed pics of internal destruction to show the magnitude. How far was target???
Shot was just over 300 yards and it’s too rotten to get close enough to photo. I should have taken photos when I recovered the bullet but my hands were bloody and I didn’t care to have my phone get bloody too. My helper had gone to bed and I dang sure didn’t want to wake her up just to take photos.
