Whatever is centerfire and available.
I like 8x57mmJS Mauser, though.

The one you shoot accurately. What gun do you use for deer hunting? It will work on hogs!

6.8 SPC. I don't have my suppresor yet, but I'm working on it.
My family and I would like to thank every soldier (active or inactive) for their service to this Great Country!
Thank You,

It depends on if you want to keep the meat or not, and whether or not you're going to head shot all of them. A semi-auto .223 works fine for any size pig if you're going to head shot. I don't recommend anything under a .270 for body shots, even if they plan on keeping the meat. If you just want to kill, get a high-powered semi-auto. If you want meat, head shot them with a .223 and be cost effective at the same time.

i believe in using semi-automatic rifles on pigs...223 for more shots on target faster....308 for a decent follow up shot with extended killing ranges. Also semi automatic shotguns for faster follow up shots on pigs when they are in thick cover in the timber. My personal choices are a Sig556 or a BushMaster Predetar both in 223.....an M1A in 308 and a Rem 11-87 Special Purpose with a 21 in.smoothbore barrel in 12 guage

the same setup that IdentMarking and Hoghunter65 use. Took a bunch of time to get to that setup myself but it is the huckleberry. Combined with a PVS-14 from Ident and you are cooking with gas.

.308 AR-10. correct optics for the time of the day. 25 round clip. What he said . . . although I find that 18 rounds is more than sufficient. 
I have two unwritten rules:
1.
2.
