"...the recoil becomes noticeably uncomfortable..." Sounds like you need a different stock, a recoil pad or a different rifle or cartridge.
Shooting stops being fun when it hurts. I'd be thinking something in .24 to .26 or .27 calibre. All of which will kill hogs and deer with no fuss.
Or a semi-auto. Like one of the new fangled .300 Blackout AR's. Assuming you have the budget, of course.
A .30 caliber, 150-grain bullet traveling about 2400 fps is a .303 British. Wouldn't exactly recommend it out of a Lee-Enfield if recoil is an issue though.
"...The Savage 340 is a bolt action..." Tack drivers too, but as they haven't been made for eons, you'd have to find a used one.
.300 Savage or .30 Remington AR(you won't find .30 Remington anywhere. The AR is currently on No Back Order at Midway too. Only made by Remington as well.) ammo won't be available in small places.
