Have killed more than I can count with everything from a 223 to a 338 Lapua. A few with my 6.5 284 using the 142 SMK and it is more important where you hit them. If you hit them low behind the shoulder they will not run very far.

BH, I started out gut shooting them so they would run off and die, but after I tracked a sow and found her struggling and had to do a coup de grace, I started aiming to kill. Even for a hog, gut shot is a crappy way to die.
(Plus 1 on low-fences). I believe that TP&W should outlaw native game behind high-fences. Good shooting, Tom

Please...those 6.5s have a high sectional density and with the right bullet would easily slay one of those pigs if shot anywhere in front of the diaphragm.
