    Mine is either a .243 or a .223 . I like to try for shot placement rather than knockdown power. I rarely have a pig run further than 10ft when I make a headshot.

    You're right, shot placement is the most important in any firearm situation. Shooting large calibers and hitting something in the foot doesn't work very well. Most any caliber works well when placed in the right spot. A .22 rim fire has put alot meat on the table.

    If you are a newbie how do you find a place to hunt hogs in Florida?

    AR in 6.8 SPC does a fine job.

    My favorite would be a semi-automatic .308 Winchester rifle.

    The new .308 AR10 build. 2A Xanthos receiver with VSeven BCG and handguard. Added a BSF carbon fiber barrel with Trijicon thermal and suppressor. Same weight as my 300 BLK below. 6.5# without the optic
