Popular, but in most cases, an "over hammer", IMHO.Not necessarily. 458 SOCOM has become quite the popular hog hammer.

I have your solution. 458 SOCOM AR, worn on your shoulder via a single point harness, loaded with 300g HPs. Deadly, and you don't have to get within pistol range.
If I wanted to carry rifle, my 45-70 is more than sufficient. I'm interested in what blackhawk 45 Colt should be loaded with. Thanks
How many hogs have you shot in the head with a .22 hollow point and had the round expand without penetrating the skull?It is quite common to perform a headshot on domestic hogs with a .22 lr when preparing them for slaughter.
The only issue I ever experienced involved hollow point bullets. Solid nose projectiles penetrate bone while hollow points tend to expand upon impact.
Was it a LR or a Short?
Shot properly in the head, front center, the slug will be laying on the back of the tongue when dressed out. Got that from my German FIL. Even saw him do it.
Then what you saw was a poor shot. Hog lowered his head at the last second, shooter flinched, bullet had no powder ( although I have killed them in traps with a CB round)I have personally seen a large hog (not feral) take a .22 LR right above the eyes and it only made him mad. 30.06 did the trick, though.
