Are you ever going back to look for the boolit? That would be the ultimate, the empty case and the boolit, both together.

I though about it, but it would be nearly impossible to find.
Not much of a blood trail. The rubber boot closed back up pretty well.
There are companies that will make a ring out of a case head. I would do that with that piece of brass.
I was planning on reloading it. I already threw it in the bin with my other emptys
That gets you a medal for being a hardcore reloader.
Instead of a medal, you'd get a trophy and hall of fame status if you pulled the lead out of your foot and resmelted it.![]()
Save the tusks off that porker and make you a belt buckle with them and a 454 case one of these days.
Well that bites.

I hate rude behavior in a man. I won't tolerate it. -Woodrow F. Call, Lonesome Dove
Some of my favorite recipes start out with a handful of depleted counterbalance devices.
Yea. Once I finally kill one with the 454 i was thinking about making the tusk into a part of a handmade sling for that rifle.
If Obummer is the answer, How stupid was the question?
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. -----Ronald Reagan
You've got to give BS Jr. a break here: It was in the "fog of war"!
And the irony really struck me ......... many here were whooping it up about all the nasty bitty poisonous things that Daniel would have to watch out for ........ and before that the dangers of driving on icy extremely deserted stretches of roads ...... sans good rest .....
............ he survives all that!
Survives his inlaws .........
Brings his bride from the Deep south .............
............ and ............... gets caught up in the fog of pig wars!
You just can't make this stuff up! Life is truely stranger than fiction!
I really think a BOOK is in order!!

Now, as the Vet said: Watch out for infection! REALLY! We are so on the edge of resistances to antibiotics it's not "funny"!
Praying for a speedy recovery!!
Best regards Daniel!
