Not a first choice I agree, but very suitable with good shot placement. If you don’t feel you can wait for a good shot or put in a good shot then other calibers and methods of getting rid of them are probably better.It wouldn't be my first choice. The problem with most .22-250 ammo is they're fairly thin jacketed and made more for varmints. Like Old Grind says, maybe FMJ and head/neck shots. For me, most pig calibers start at .243 with a stout bullet.
Very large boar 2.3 took a few years ago. She was shooting 77 grn custom comps which I wouldn’t recommend on hogs but it’s what she had for deer at the time.
