    subsonic 44 for hunting pigs, the realities?

    Was thinking about a 44 mag or 44-40 lever action loaded down with cast bullets for pigs at 30-75 yards. Cant user supressors here in the Republic of Australia-stan, after something still a bit less blasty for self and also dogs. How well do flat nose cast kill though at 1050fps?. I hear a few opinions on this from 'okay' to 'terrible' but assume a lot would come down to perspective. My thoughts they wont fall right over.But as long as they arent running a quarter mile to the next farm after a lung shot I'd be happy. Thanks for any experiences!
