I have a Contender .44 mag with a suppressor that has been my main "hog gun" for several years. Mine is a 14" barrel with a "can" a bit longer than the barrel. Can is welded on, to avoid needing an SBR permit - to go with the suppressor permit! Longest kill shot I've made on a hog was around 75 yards - but that was a long shot for the way I hunt hogs! Close in, works great. I shoot sub sonic hard cast bullets from 300 to 350 gr. Knock down power is impressive, and twice I've killed two hogs with one shot - and not recovered the bullet. Not big hogs, but hogs.

The short barred Contender with suppressor is a hog killing machine!
