First time Florida Hog hunter with questions on rifle caliber choice

The whisper with a PS-22 night sight in front of an ACOG is the ultimate pig gun. The 8 inch barrel may resrtict you a little, but if you make a head shot and keep it from squeeling other pigs won't care much and wll hang around allowing you to get multiple pigs.

If I were going to hunt wild hogs in fairly thick brush on foot stalking them,I would choose a weapon that was fast handling,open sights 444,45-70,450.I have hunted hogs off and on for over 40 years, and when they run out of the brush in your direction you better be able to react and shoot fast and hit your mark.Just my two cents worth.........Good Luck

Grey,
Curious, did you and your wife go play with the central or north piggies and how did the hunt go for you?
Best,
