Very minimal experience.

Only shot at a hog once with a mech. 3-blade, similar to the Rocket miniblaster 3L. Passthru on a 120 pound boar @ approx 12 yards, he took 3-4 steps and fell over. It was my 1st bowkill and I never expected a hog to drop that quickly. I've shot others with different heads, but haven't had one drop that quick again. Personally I think it was beginner's luck.

I use spitfire's in 100 gr. never had a problem.best to take a quartering away or stright broadside just behind the shoulder.through the ribs takes both lungs and they want go far.

I would never try stright through the sholder,thats just me.
