Or he could get really fun and crazy and go with a Marlin .444! Killed a powerful lot of hogs and deer with the old .444. Shes been my brush deer/hog gun for a lot of years. Aint had either one go too dern fer after taking a 260-300 grain pill from her. Good out to 200 yards all day long with it. Every time I take the .458 out she just looks all hurt and pitiful at me so I take her along with me on my hog hunts. Make her happy at least one day out of the hunts. Isn't to awful hard on the shoulder unless I load up some seriously hot 300 grain loads. Then she lets me know who's boss
