reason i used 22/250 , was with Tags - to sell either the meat , or skins -
22cal left a small hole in the skin , for selling . and are tru ,reloads @ 'round 3200/ heavy load 4200 Fps -
you could not have both ways , one tag per roo, either sell tha meat , - OR - the skin ..

at the time it was 'bout 6-8cents a kilo -meat .. plus ya have to have a local
large cooler ,, hence the skin option . not much diff .
these days , for pigs .444 Marlin , all legit..
cheers .. mc..

ps , what kickback? anywhere near 45/70 ..
