.223 for Hogs?
 
How do yall think a .223 would be for hogs. I was thinkin about the Remington Model 7615 Ranch Carbine because when I hunt Im usually gettin in and out of a truck a lot. I already have a Savage Model 10 .243, just want somethin smaller and cheaper ammo

either or. I would use a strong bullet though. Like a 69gr softpoint or if your really angry you could use some Hornaday TAP [:@]
