My piggy rifles are a Rem 700 ADL .243 Win and a .444 Marlin depending on terrain. Seven kneck shots to date with no piggy complaints; they drop where hit when you shoot them in the kneck. The 7mm is great for open terrain, but not much in close woods. Good hunting.
Unless the "7mm" is a 7mm Whisper round, then the answer is definitely the 7mm chambering. Some hogs can get big, mean, or both even!
I'm going to agree with Criticalbass--Use enough gun. And for your safety as well. Those can be some mean, vindictive animals. And who can blame them? My 7mm08 was used to take one a couple years ago and would have worked fine had the bullet actually hit some bone or thick muscle. It was a perfect, and I mean perfect, heart shot that didn't even expand the bullet. I switched bullets just in case. Go with the 7mm.
like they have stated, 7mm all the way(EITHER). over the 223 , it just doesnt have the power i'd want with a mad pig after me , when the first shot didnt make the stop, not saying it wouldnt , but just in case. i always like to have more than enough instead of not enough
i'd go with 7mm
