[8X56MS]

The new 336Y Marlin and the SOCOM 16 both turned out to be good hog rifles. I shot a small hog with the 336Y Marlin, about 50 pounds at a range of less than 40 yards, just at sunset.
The 30/30 with 150 grain Remington Core-Lokt bullet remains a great hog round. We had several hogs taken with 30/30 rifles this trip, at ranges up to 110 yards, and all were one shot stops.

The SOCOM, at 9 pounds, is heavy, and there is no getting around that. I found that hunting from a stand, either a climber or a ladder or tower, the SOCOM excels. I was very happy with the new EOTech holo sight. It meets it's rave reviews with ease.
One smallish hog went down to the SOCOM, and the 150 grain Federal SP ammo did just what it should.
