Would the 250-3000 savage and the 100 gr BT a lethal combination on wild hogs?.

Yes.
I have killed them with bullets from 53gn Sierra's in the humble .223 Remington to 500gn Hornady's at 2500fps in the .460.

The 100gn .257 Ballistic Tip will kill any pig.

I have used 95-grain BTs in a .243 to kill a truckload of them. I wouldn't hesitate to use a 100-grain BT in my .257 AI, either.
