[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1368216, member: 30902"] It's too light if you can't make the necessary head and neck shots and select the right bullet for the job. I'm a fan of the 6.5 Lapua and 6.8SPC for hogs as well as the .458 SOCOM and 300 Blackout. The 6.5L properly loaded is a solid 3-400 yard capable hog killer but again, shot placement and bullet selection are key. The 6.8 SPC will do a very good job with the 110gr Accubond SSA or similar ammo out to 300yds. The other two a short range only. With any of them the only way you're going to get clean, quick kills is with head/spine shots. [/QUOTE]
