Default 1 Shot From .223 Drops 2 Hogs!

I'd rather by lucky that good any day of the week but dropping 2 hogs with one bullet is just pure dumb luck. The first hog was struck in the left side of the head with the bullet exiting the right side. The bullet then entered the left side of second hog in the lung area and never exited the second. I was using the Hornady Full Boar .223 50 grain which has worked great for me. All of my buddies here in East Texas didn't believe me about killing two hogs with one shot until they saw the video...

Thank you! It's amazing that a 50 grain bullet can penetrate that much pork

Yes. i've used the .223 and the 53 grain Barnes TSX on hogs. That bullet goes through both shoulders of a 200 pound hog.

I'm using the Hornady Full Boar and it does well but I need to try the Barnes TSX
