i have a mini-14 also. it is very light and easy to carry. i believe the ps-90 this guy has is the longer barrel is should be the 16" barrel. i guess, i might find out. might actually carry one of my rifles to do a follow-up shot if needed. have pushed my luck going after wounded hogs lately. "lol"
yes we all know with a well placed shot you can kill game with a 22 cal, does that make it a good hunting caliber,hell no in my opinion. now I don't want to piss off anyone that uses small bore diameters and light bullets ( under 25 caliber and 100 grains of weight) if that works well for you congrats, but in general hunters with no or limited experience this type of round would lead to alot of injured and lost game (my opinion only). there are so many better rounds to choose from. what is this persons reason for wanting to use such a caliber, if he just wants to see what it will do, get some water jugs not live animals. as hunters we have a moral and ethical obligation to try and make humane one shot kills, and not kill for fun.now if hogs can run up to 300 lbs or better, can be potentily dangerous, and can be at rock chucking distances, I would opt for something larger bore and heavy, many to choose from: 30-30, 35 rem,375,444,45-70, in other actions I would say 270 ,280,7mm's,30 cals (308 & 30-06)etc. I left out the 243"s 6mm's and 25 cals ( fine guns that they are for whitetail) I think they are just too light and don't have the smackdown effect needed for say a charging 300lb pig at 20 yds, a 12 ga slug would be more in order, but thats just my opinion take it for what you paid for it,nothing
