Three classics, thongs, 9.3x57 and Gold beer.
 Just on dark I drove out the road to where one of our dams is close to the road to go for a walk and look for a pig with the Husky.
The place smelt of pigs and they had been living there for awhile. This is 400 yards off the road.


Shot another 5 and one got away.




That makes 101 pigs for three days between my two dogs and me. It's like the old days but with better gear.

FB certainly does his part to control the pig population.

250 grain RN with 45 grains of 2206H for 2200 fps @ 36 000 psi. Mild but it kills well and suits the sights.

Sounds good, I'm using 48.5gr. of that powder with the 270gr. speers in my M96, 9.3x57. No pressure signs at all and excellent accuracy with the factory irons. I'm getting cloverleafs at 100 meters (scope) with those and they are running 2,300fps even.
I'll bet the 270gr. Speer would be a good one for those pigs, due to hit's thin jacket.
