Hog hunting depends on where. It can be very close up or at hundreds of yards Traditional German wild boar hunting run fairly low power scopes with 1.5-6 very popular . For night hunting they love those big objective lenses like 56 MM . I have an old Weaver ElPaso Micro tract 8x56 steel scope that was an export item and it has very heavy German Picket reticule that can be seen in almost pitch dark. For an 8x scope it is possible to pick up running game at 50 yards out with it easily. I just mounted it on a .375 H&H a Whitworth Mauser action and a heavy 25" accurate barrel , With the picket point I can hit with in 10" at 500 yards pretty well off a bog pod, and it can pick up running game very well at half that distance and down to under 50 yards with the large field of view. , the heavy horizontal line are used for ranging and BDC estimating . A very good system !
I recommend a 1-6 or 2-7 power scope for hogs as ideal .
