I use a AR style rifle with .223 for the simple reason I want them to run into the brush and die there and not out where I hunt deer. I have dropped them with the round but it isn't as easy as using a larger caliber like 30-06 or .308. 30-30 is a good round for up to 150 yards for me. Basically, like anything else, it is shot placement. I wouldn't use a pistol or shotgun unless I was close and out of the hogs reach.

Hog hunting is fun and yes we need more people hunting them year round.
