I've always heard 10mm or .45

I would use whatever you use when you carry the weapon. If it won't kill a 75# pig what is it going to do to a 200# man wearing a heavy coat?

A HP will work. I lean towards a higher bullet weight in a certain caliber for the deeper penetration, like a 200 grain for a 10mm, or 230 grain for a 45.

Just bought my second Glock. G20 in 10mm. I will reload the 155gr. XTP bullets for all around use, including hogs. Shot some of these Hornadys this weekend and they do have some power.

XTPs are bad medicine for anything you send them into!
