What are your thoughts gentlemen? Is a more heavily loaded .44 special (approx 1000 fps) enough for porkers up to 200 pounds? Thanks.
^ +1 the name of the game is getting through their thick scar tissue on their flanks, a heavy Keith SWC would do that with ease. While not my first pick for hog there is little doubt that the 44 Special would to the trick on all but the largest of hogs (they reach over half a ton around here) Skip the HPs because they will "dump" too much energy going through the hide IMHO.IMO: A .44 Spl 240 Keith SWC at 950 - 1,000 in the right place is enough for anything that slithers, hops, walks, jumps, grunts, snarls, whistles, drools, or dumps in the woods in the lower 48.
Probably the other 2 states two, but especially for sure Hawaii.
If you put it through the boiler room, it will die.
But thats just me & my belief in the .44 Special Skeeter load.

Me too Lloyd!Id much rather have that combo then any load in a 357.
