The other "issue" I would have with very long shots is the impact velocity at distance. In this case, obviously, the bullet had enough umph to kill the pig. But at impact velocities below about 2,000 fps most controlled expansion bullets give very little expansion - and they also don't seem to have the ability to create a wound channel bigger than their frontal diameter. This may not be a factor here, but is definitely something to consider . . . .
