waaaaay back the NZHunter guys did article on bush pig (hate that term...its what ugly shelahs were called when I was a young fella) CARBINE length rifles and loads....long and short of it they dropped down to 100-120ish grain barnes type loads to regain speed with preformance to stretch distance that little bit more...if you know where your current load is at 300 etc you could make that 400 yard hit and do it again doubling the effect of projectile on animal.... chances are you going to be all set up for the long shot and tumble a big fat spiker at spitting range to shoot anyway.....
