What bullet for hogs?

I have a 6arc CMMG I take to Texas and it is perfect for hogs and deer. I shoot 103gr ELDX bullet and it is more than enough power with zero recoil. I saw someone above say shoot them in the face and I respectfully think they are an idiot. If you blow the jaw off of a pig they will run and squeel for days. Shoot them in the ear , their brain is right behind that. Or in the boiler room. Do not shoot them in the jaw. My opinions are free and worth every penny.
 
As others have noted...pretty much any bullet will work for a head shot with those cartridges. Head shots are preferred because body shots may leave you tracking them in some very thick cover (if you go look for them) depending on where you hunt them.

Neck shots will also work hitting the spine.

If you have plenty of room available to shoot more in one spot, bring the semiauto. If you are pressed for time when shooting, you may only get one shot in tight quarters.

And by all means, please keep up this important public service :)
