Hunting & Fishing Noob ? on bullet for Fla. Hogs

[Cserv]

Just moved to Fla. and am getting ready to do some hog hunting. Will probably use my .270(Rem.710) but have only shot 130gr. Win.Supreme Ballistic slvr tips. great on deer, but don't know if enough for hogs. Have my Win.M70 300WSM with 150gr. same factory ammo as well if that would be better. Any advice is greatly appreciated.Thanx, Eric

Both calibers and ammo will dispatch hogs nicely.
I would opt for the M70...cause it aint a 710.

Yeah the 710 was a I need something to hunt with am broke and it was the right price, it does hit where it's supposed to, but God the trigger pull is insane.

Ballistic silver tips will work just fine. But if you want alittle more punch try 140-150gr accubonds, they work great on deer and elk. I use 95gr win ballistic silver tips in my .243 for hogs,deer, and speedy goat(when I'm to lazy to reload).
