I like the mid-bores for woods hunting for still hunting and doing drives. Often under those conditions I can't guarantee a double lung shot. I find the .35 caliber kills well at moderate velocity while not screwing up too much meat. I put this together last year just for our annual late season doe drives, but it works on pigs too:
