Inside 200 yards id give em a 27 caliber 110 grain vmax a little behind and below the base of the ear. Outside 200 id pass with the v max, but with the other .270 Id put an Accubond behind his shoulder, that hog looks fat but young. Doesnt look terribly huge either a lung shot will do the trick.

Much less than 220, hogs are hard to estimate if you havent seen many on the scale before. Shoot just behind the ear from a broadside or quartering away position and youll do just fine. Do not attempt the shot if hes moving to much or youre not steady only shoot if you are 100 percent confident in your hold.
