You won't even notice it when a 500 lb. boar with 5" ivories is bearing down on you through the palmettos. That's a promise.

I use a Ruger N0.1 in .45-70 with either a Barnes Original 300gr. or a Rem. HP 300 gr. at 2300 fps. Have been using a Leupold M8-3X but plan to switch to a big aperture and moonlight front ivory bead for the thick stuff.

Thanks for the post. Stan

May God bless America and those who defend her.
