I'll chalk this one up as overkill, but my brother texted me a pic of a hog that he shot w/ his 30-378 today. $100 for a box of 20 seems pretty pricey to me for hog ammo, but he can drive nails w/ it.

Heck, I am too tight to hog hunt with Hornady ammo out of my .243 rifle! I use the Wal-Mart Federal for hog hunting and save the Hornady for deer hunting.

Yep a little too much for what I can afford but if you can afford it, I'm envious of you!

+1 I don't respect them enough to use the good stuff. Wish I could use a .22lr.

Head shots with CCI Stingers works great.

I;ve been known to sling some expensive boo-lits at them if that's what I had with me at the time, but lately I've been slingin' the 55gr ultramax.
