one of the neighbors sons wanted to go hunt hogs locally, he has tried several of my hand guns and has found,
he is by far most comfortable and consistently accurate using the LEE 230 grain hard cast bullet ,
loaded over 6 grains of unique in my EAA WITNESS 45 ACP PISTOL
these are very accurate moderately priced pistols,
I have carried for , concealed carry use.
self defense and hunting.
its certainly not a magnum and while I prefer revolvers like a 44 mag,
the 45 ACP does get the job done with far less recoil and noise.

keep in mind hogs are hunted locally and ranges tend to be rather short, 20-30 yards is a long shot.
how far away do you think youll see a hog thats at most 28"-32" at the shoulder
Ive used and loaded these cast bullets for several years loaded over 6 grains of unique powder
