    Avoid 223 , tits on a bull when it comes to shooting pigs reliably , seen a good few fuckups with 223 vs boars , I carted a sawn off bolt action 12g around for years or a 3030 but they were for bailed pigs , just get your self a 308 some heavier rounds and be done with it mow them down at any sensible range or if you wanted something old school how about a 44mag or something along those lines .
