.223 Rem 77 SMK or 75 AMAX for Hogs

[BBK]

Does anyone have any experience shooting hogs with the .223 77 SMK or the 75 AMAX or other heavy (69 and above) match bullets? If not, does anyone have a load that works well for them on hogs?

The smk's didnt expand and ricked on me but the amax's kill kill kill. I use varget "aka gold" ad they shoot great.

What he said about the A-Max. Don't forget about the 80 grain A-Max and Varget(if you have or can find some!) also. I would recommend staying away from the shoulder unless you don't mind meat loss or reduced penetration.

Thanks for the info on the 75AMAX. They shoot better in my guns that the SMK and I have some. I would like to try the 80's but I don't know if I can get them any time soon.
