Hi. I have just begun hunting wold hogs. I use an '06 or .300 Win mag. I want to take my friend hunting but he a stoggy and conservative. He has no scopes on any of his rifles. Further, he only shoots single action revolvers. He doesn't want a 1911 because he doesn't trust such newfangled guns. After all, the 1911 is only about a hundred years old!! LOL.
Anyway, he wants to take his MArlin Cowby model lever action in .30 .30 out to hunt hogs. Oklahoma hogs can get up to the 450-550 lb range. Is the .30 .30 suitable for ranges at 100 yards and less? And whayt factory loads would you suggest?
