@Bill J H - Good shot placement and bullet construction “should” go without saying BUT it obviously NEEDS SAYING. The experience You listed confirms a .270 is plenty of any Pig/Hog —-yet this thread will go on and others have a different opinion then you and I. I must respect those opinions as...

@Cucuy - Funny, you have the same issues with your Ram as I do. I love the Ram and like it better then any of my pervious F150 or Silverado —- but HATE the round dial shifter ! It’s been 4 years and I’m still not use to it. Sometimes when about to back up and looking out the rear window - I...

@Ridge Runner - spill Hot Coffee in your lap while driving at highway speeds and see if You are Not distracted, and while you are drinking it AND driving one handed —. . Also, I’m Not sure what new cars You drive but I’m finding the “touch screens” ALL require you to take your eyes off the road...

@RLD I have read recently that requiring special child seats for kids over 2 years old has resulted in NO benefit to those children in an accident vs. them wearing a standard seat belt. These child seats used on children over 2 years old (when the law allows seats to “face forward”) increases...

@ftrovato - I’m Not qualified to be a Politician, I’d rather sit back and laugh or watch others tell me how much protection I need. It’s rare to find someone on AH that may be able to handle a firearm and even spend a night in the woods without crying (or wetting their pants) but also agrees...

@CJNJ Agree, we are raising Morons that can’t make decisions and must be protected from everything, they think being called bad names is “Bullying”….unless you have a Black Eye, fat lip, or bloody nose —-there was NO Bully

@RLD - when you post “We can prevent” - to whom are you referring ? Stupid Parents or Stupid Government? The same “Stupid Parents” are IN Government and passing Stupid laws. I get your point and some protections of children have been helpful but it’s far over reaching now —- My 6 year old...

@ftrovato - Good Point, I forgot kids can choke on Apples & Oranges too, plus too many “green apples” cause kids diarrhea and that’s a real mess.

@generalzip - you certainly have put in the thought, planning, and know the details far better then I do. Sounds like you have a very effective rifle that is well set up for the type of hunting you enjoy - your knowledge and attention to detail is impressive.

I have used & purchased from GENTZ and spoken with Jason - Top Notch service, quality products, fast shipping. One of the better vendors I’ve found in the past few years.

@generalzip - since the weight of Suppressors on a large caliber rifles is 8oz or more, How could they Not reduce recoil? Hanging a 1/2 pound of “anything” off the end of your barrel has to reduce recoil somewhat. I would think that the Lighter your rifle is to start with the more dramatic the...

@Hunt anything - the reason Pheasant were successfully transplanted into the U.S with “minimal” effort —- they released LIVE CAPTURE WILD BIRDS ——Not generation after generation of PEN Raised stock. Today, releasing a Pheasant and expecting it to survive is like letting your Husky go off and...

@Nyati - You forgot BIRDS, yeah, flying birds behind a fence ? And Kangaroo “High hopping” over the Fence. No one spends the money & effort on a High Fence (and maintaining it) Unless that Fence works well - damn near perfect - to keep the animals they profit from INSIDE. Hunt high fence or...

@grand veneur - many Women will agree with You (same as No reason to be larger then a B cup)

@SRvet - Agree with the exception of “I AM IMPRESSED by the Caliber”. A .600NE doesn’t even need to be fired to be IMPRESSIVE. And the very few Men that can handle it (Women can sit this one out) are to be admired.
