last week i shot this 60-65 lb pig, 30 yds. 50 cal muzzlelaoder,hornady 45-250 grain sabot....after the shot the pigs stood there with their hair up just looking, i turned to reload and they started to trott off, not spooked at all, just a normal trott....i went over to where they were, no blood.....ok, clean miss.I was fine with that....the next day, there the hog laid, almost right where i had shot it, must of circled around....i couldn't hunt that afternoon because i was a buddy and the permit holder doesnt hunt evenings, if i had been able too, i would of seen the hog come out....the hog didn't squeal, didn't grunt, there was NO reaction other than the hair going up.....why???????????????????
the shot was a high , center shoulder......should of had some reaction i would think......every other hog i have shot with that gun and load has dropped, but one and that was a poor shot...but I knew I had hit it at least.
