Have been serioulsy thinking of hunting Texas Hogs here for awhile and now am thinking of what to use.
I was thinking rifle, although I've heard a handgun could be used - I have a 686+ but from what I've heard, something in the .44 mag/.45LC is minimum.
Question is - what rifle calibre would be suitable? Is .243 too light? Would it be better to go to something like a .270/30-06? Also, I expect that it being woods hunting iron sights or maybe a low-powered scope would be applicable.
