Cagun, seems funny that people in swamp country would favor bolt action,where fast action rifles would seem to be the ticket.I hunt in SO. GA alot hogs & deer and have enjoyed using a rem 7600 pump in 270 for many years.the 7600 is lite fast for a follow up shot & more accurate than most guys give it credit for.Look on the used racks sometimes you can find a good deal on a good pump. Give them a try.
