    .300 Blackout Shot Placement?

    So I'm new to the AR hunting game. I've had ARs for along time and shot hogs with 5.56/.223 for about ten years. I've stepped up to the .300BLK now and excepted that it has a limitation of +-200 yards. When I've shot hogs with 5.56 it was always a head shot or on does it was a high neck shot. My question is at 200 yards with a Barnes 110gr Tac-Tx can I take a heart/lung shot and be effective enough to make a clean one shot kill? I know there are a lot of variables but I've not had the trigger time with this round and need in the field experience from y'all.

    After reading this thread I would say yes but I have not real trigger time to say for sure.

      I like to drop em on the spot.

      Here's the last couple I bothered with taking a picture of:

      The 110 does a fantastic job. Break the neck and they drop right there. No tracking, no nothin.

      If they're on the run, I just try to center punch the lungs. I will wait for the good shot most times. I get a lot of self satisfaction from one shot kills.

        I'll have an update after this weekend. Headed down south tonight to hunt for the weekend. Plan on messing up some pigs with mine.
