Anyone shoot an AK or SKS while hog hunting? How does the 7.62mm perform? Bullet suggestions?

We have a couple of them that we have just started trying to use this last couple of weeks. Haven't had much time but the little bit of time we have spent with them has proven a lil hard. Seem to be a lil hard to get used to.

It's my favorite short range round. This is the exit wound made by Wolf Military Classic HP's  And here's what happens when you hit a leg bone
