Default RE: terminal performance on game....opinions?

Only guarantee of a DRT is take out the front 2 wheels(scapula), though get only one and it may scamper as far as a H/L shot! I don't see any one being better on the game end when deer are the target.

For your application flip a coin if you don't like or desire one over the other, they'll all geter done and good selection of bullets to choice from. PersonallyI like the 7mm rem mag b/c it faster, flatter and more punch for larger then deer game.

I haven't hunted wild hogs butif deer were my main concern I'd get a .257 cal such as 25-06rem and just load it appropriately for the situation. Flatter shooter with more then enough punch to get clear through the biggest wt/mulies in NA. Sinceit isn't on your radar I'llgo with James & the .277 cal - 270win or 270wsm.
