I second his concern about .223 for hogs. I am sure somebody has tried, I just have not heard anything. We have had great results with a .243, but .223 only puts about 55-70% of the energy of a .243 downrange.. For Hogs though I am not sure 223 will be enough. .
Another good one. The guy I have seen take the most hogs at our ranch uses a Chinese [gasp] SKS in .308, no scope. It's ugly, but nothing else has sliced up more bacon. He bought it for $100.Nothing wrong with a simple .308
I vote M1A

Our foreman at the ranch stopped by this weekend with a new .223 AR, but he was just sighting it in at our range. I should know how it does by Christmas, but I'm sure somebody will chime in with more info before then.
