Future Breakfast Sausage

[JV842]

Was looking for a doe or spike this morning it was pleasantly surprised w some breakfast sausage walking through the field!! Wanted to see how my 120grn ttx out of the 7X57 performed on a decent sized animal so put it rt on the point of the shoulder at about 130yds…didn’t take a step and clean pass through.
Will do a further performance post when I process him.

Do you put fat into your wild hog sausage and if so how much? Be a good pic for the "If your rifle was a vehicle" thread. Congratulations!

Depends on the pig…he’s getting to be on the big side of what I like to eat, so will definitely throw in a decent amount of fatty pork butt to it; 75/25 wild to store bought.
I have him in a saltwater ice bath rt now in our walk in cooler n will change out the water tomorrow. Then hang him Sunday for a few days to drip dry.
N I do love that truck; Blue Thunder!! 94 Yota 22RE, had her since 2003. Love the rifle too

His leg; shoulder, is cocked up, rt where the humerus connects to the scapula..Rt where I was aiming
I knew I wasn’t going to be cutting any chops, roasts, etc…so I really wanted to see how that bullet n reload performed….more pics to come when I cut him up in a week give or take a couple days
