Anybody else prefer in .223 a 62gr-75gr lead soft point over a 50Gr hollow point for pigs?

I like the 75 grain bullets but I've never seen a soft point in that size.

I really like the 70 gr Hornady GMX on hogs in my .223. It's similar to the Barnes TSX, but its made of Gilding Metal instead of all copper. I'm working on loads for 65gr Sierra Game King an anxious to try them as well.

I believe sierra makes a 70 grain soft point. I shoot 60 grain NP's and would shoot 75 grain sirrocos if I had the twist to stabilize them.
