Normal deer hunt could mean many things. Hunting from a stand? From the ground? In thick brush or in the open? The answer for me is always a flat shooting rifle with a bullet properly suited for pigs like the Accubond or partition though non premium bullets will work also. Its just what Im most confident in.

This is good advice. I have taken them with all of guns except a muzzle loader mentioned in the OP, but a good high power rifle really knocks the daylights out them, and clearly has more punch than the shotguns slugs that I've seem them hit with. Had to do a little tracking with both a 12 and 20 gauge shotgun, and a 357 from a carbine, but the 150 grn 30.06 (made for deer and other medium game) smacked em right down in their tracks.

Semi auto rifles are used for the hog hunting like Browning BAR, Remington 74 (740, 742, 7400, and new 750) and the Benelli looks to be a real contender in the semi-auto market.
