[Calculated steps]

Very glws

 

[FrankT]

This is some great video and shows why you need to use the right caliber for the job!

 

[SAWMAN]

great vid. couple of comments.

1.use enough gun .... which imo,the 6.8 is.
2. did i hear him say V-MAX. completely wrong in any caliber/chambering for hogs.
3. please ...... can't we all start using the proper terminology. caliber refers to bore size ... as in ... .308" or .224" or .257". chambering is used for what the thing is called that fits into the thing that is made into the thing that you use for shooting ..... whatever. example ... 270Win,6.8SPC,or 308Win,300Win Mag. these are a CHAMBERING.

now on to mag vs clip ....... ? ....... never mind. ---- sawman

He said there was a 556 also shooting with the vmax, the 6.8's were firing handload 120SST. The 556 and the 300WTF is not enough gun/caliber/chambering/rifle for running large hogs in the shooters opinion, you can comment directly on his utube channel or LSB for further info, I was not there and just passed on the remarkable video in the interest of FUN.

Enough gun...

I am now on the MDWS waiting list for a 10.5" 6.8 bbl. Using my 8" 300BLK bbl, my 272 lb hog stopped the bullet when it hit the spine. The bullet did not penetrate into the spine. I do feel a longer Blackout bbl would have given me more penetration. The Blackout has never failed to completely pass through a sow, but has failed to completely penetrate two boars now.

 

[SAWMAN]

first thought was .......... that video was made a few weeks ago in a peanut field north of milton.

bang .. bang .. bang ............ bang .. bang .... bang ................. and ... bang. ----- sawman

Good for you, I am waiting on the ARP barrel myself 12.5"? I believe. Mark at MDWS is a good guy, very helpful.
