Best cartridge for coyote/hog hunting in a factory tikka? 243 1:8 or 223 1:8

I like fast and flat for my calling rifle. Currently shooting a tikka t3x varmit in 22-250.
With hogs being targeted id definitely go 243, and if your hunting a bait site, maybe 6.5 creed. Coyote fur isn't worth anything, and 6.5 will thump a piggy.

I prefer 22-250 but .223 is a great choice also

If considering the 243 take a look at the 87g Vmax. Imo one of the best varmint bullets out there. You can run it in a short barrel and still get good velocity out of it.
