At 75 yards, I have to agree with Soilarch. The 444 is a much better close range gun. At 75 yards, the 06 will be traveling so fast that ( unless you hit a shoulder bone etc ) most of it's energy will be delivered to the ground on the other side of the hog. The 444 would be lucky at best if it made a pass through, therefor delivering ALL of it's energy in to the hog.
