Thread: Bushpig rifle build

They're just giving you a hard time, because they're old and stubborn.

But they're right. Anything will work in the bush, and out to 300m for that matter. No need to get hung up on barrel lengths, ballistics etc,etc unless you're shooting long-range. In which case you'll be doing so much practice & experimenting at the range anyway, that you'll probably come to your own conclusions.

My current bush pig sports a 24" barrel, and it's chambered for the best cartridge in the world. The .270 Win.

Bush pigs are what my dogs catch on a regular basis.

You youngen's like bush pigs of the human kind to ah @Frodo
You seen Deliverance- "squeal like a pig boy"

Anyway - call them what you like but I will NEVER call a rifle I own a "Pig"
Plenty else out there you can put the name too that is more warranted
