I think the big hogs are difficult to bring down with even a 5.56 unless hit in a vital organ.

On the other hand, this is a good argument for a 30 round mag.

If 22LRs can penetrate the skull, would 4 or 5 do the job?

Otherwise the kids have to carry 12 ga w/ slugs.

I know a guy who hunts wild hogs in south Georgia. He says AR-15 w/ high cap mag is the weapon used by many. Feral hogs are apparently a big problem down there.

Those of us that have been hunting and trapping hogs for a long time have an old saying, “Choot I’m In the face” If they ain’t looking at you then shoot them at the base of the ear. I could post pictures but it’s not pretty.
