Beautiful, congrats. Where ya at that your in shirt sleaves? Florida? Ga? I wanna try the T-EZ myself, they look like they would fly beautiful in my Savage. What does Gobbler Getter shoot in his Savage for pigs? They are pretty heavy boned and very thick skin so the bullet must be "well constructed/designed". Chap

Jim shot a hog a few weeks ago with a Gold Dot. As far as I know that's the only animal he has taken with the Savage. Upon opening this hog up we noticed that the T-EZ has blown through the spine before making it's way through the rib cage. There were all kinds of bone fragments in the neck area, but no sign of bullet fragments. In actuality, I could have gotten away with a smaller bullet, but when it comes to hogs you can never be too careful.

South Carolina. That pic was taken right before we cleaned her. I had removed my rain jacket and rolled up my sleeves.

MMMM pork chops. way to go. I would love to get a hog with the muzzy. Trouble is (or maybe not) is that we only have a couple counties in PA were there are some feral hogs running rampant.

RE: First hog with my T/C Encore Endeavor
Just wanted to rekindle this thread since there have been several comments in recent thread about Barnes Bullets. Maybe this will be of some interest to some folks...
