    Default Hog hunt tonight

    well this evening i'm off to Poteet Tx for a hog hunt.
    My 6.8 is finished ( 16" ARP/Mega upper,Mega lower),load developed (110gr SPH H322),looks good on paper. Now i get to see how the 6.8 will perform. hopefully the hogs will show up... Feb was a good time for the hogs, lots of hogs were there, i got a good sized sow @ 155yds with my Remmy 700 SPS in 308. The hogs are pretty big out where i'm going.... hopefully a hog or two will come out and I get to see how the 6.8 performs
    My buddy will be using my 5.56

    A bad day in the field still beats a good day at work.

    We also use the elusive wildlife green kill lights, great products and plenty of light! No spooking the hogs either, they acted as if the light was not there.
