Most of my hog kills have been with a 257 Wby and a 115 NBT at 3400fps. All shot through the high shoulder or neck area and all DRT. I even killed 2 with one shot. The bullet exited the shoulder of a small boar and hit a piglet behind him. One shot and 2 dead pigs.
I shot a 140ish pound sow in the shoulder with a 55 NBT from my 220 Swift. She fell at the shot and kicked a few times and that was it. I was surprised to learn the bullet passed completely through, even after being started at 3800 fps. Distance was 110 yds. I figured the bullet would've completely disintegrated inside the hog.
