6.8
A buddy has a Wilson Combat in 6.8 and I must say I aam throughly impressed with what it does to 200 pound hogs. We got into a group and both shot 2 at around 140 yards. I used a .223 and hit one in the neck and one in the chest. The neck shot let him run about 60 yards with a good blood trail. The chest shot one we never found. My buddy had 2 cherst shots that punched holes all the way through and one hit the opposite shoulder leaving a huge gaping wound. I would defintely buy one if I decide I want yet one more cal. of ammo I need to buy. I have a DPMS .243 that I will use for hogs on occasion but it is a big heavy rifle and not really built for carrying around.
