Default RE: What caliber @ 100 yds.

Recently I have been hunting with my 35 Rem with 200 gr soft points and I shot a 195lb hog at 10 yds right behind the shoulder and it did not pass through. It left a good blood trail but I ended up having to shoot it again in the head to finish it off. Last week I shot a 60lb hog in the neck and dropped it and it did pass through that time. I still have confidence in that gun but I have decided that gun will be hunted in areas 50 yds or less. If I was hunting in an area that I would have 100 yd shots I would take my 30-06 with 150 gr soft points. Just my opinion. Either gun you take good luck on your hunt.
