The hog went down, but rather oddly. There was a nice hole into the hog, but not much blood anywhere, the majority being in the nose and mouth and that wasn't much. The bullet performed alright. It is functional for hogs, but really shines on coyotes.

Lots of necropsy imagery in this video, but not too much close-up...

Informative video.
You are just a killin' mow-sheen !!!!

So if you were restricted to only one bullet, given your experiences to date, what would it be?

Rookie, I didn't shoot it for accuracy, but in chrono'ing the ammo, I put 4 shots in a corner of the steel target less that 1 and 1/4". My goal was just aiming at the corner area.

dT, bullet depends on one's wants/needs. I like destructive bullets for hogs and like Speer TNT 90 gr. and Hornady SST 123 gr. as they consistently produce lots of damage. If I was hunting meat, I would go for something like a Federal Fusion that performed pretty much exactly as advertised or a monolithic bullet such as one of Maker's T-Rex bullets that seem to hold onto their petals fairly well.

Love the sharing of the extra effort put forth by the necropsy work. That's much appreciated. Nice/solid kill. Cookies for the kiddos!
