On that Hog because is slightly quartering to me I would go definitely Yellow
I just want to understand this, Ron.... Are you saying that about 25-30 FPE should be enough to penetrate through 1.5" of solid bone with enough energy left over to fully penetrate the brain?....Bob
So where is the skull over 1.5" thick?.... (colour me confused).... Has anyone ever tested different FPE levels on the skull of a hog at different USABLE entry points?.... I don't hunt hogs (none around here) but I like to learn what works and what doesn't....Bob
yes the skull on the side is thicker but there's plenty meat before you reach the skull and there's more curves and sticking out bones, a little off and it's all over.Definitly, top of the forehead is my all time 1st choice.
I'm still trying to warp my head around a pellet being able to penetrate 1.5" of bone when it won't go through a 2x4, which is also 1.5" thick.... WOW!!!Bo

Guess it just goes to show that I have all of my thoughts messed up on this.
