Get either the .270 or 30-06 and use a quality Bonded bullet and you will be good to go. My experience with ballistic tips on hogs has not been favorable. Shot an 80 lb hog at 100 yds through the boiler room and he still managed to run 100 yds. But I dropped a 250lb hog instantly at 100 yds with federal 150gr round that you can get from walmart for twelve bucks a box. I shoot a .308 CZ 550.
