Best 5.56 bullet for hog/deer hunting

[rcparker]

We've killed hogs with a 22lr rimfire with one shot at 25 yards or so. It's all about shot placement

Soft Lead Tipped Projectiles,
The heavier the better.
Precision head shot placement trumps gut shots.

A couple good medium weight bullets are the 64 grain Winchester power point and the Sierra 65 grain gameking. Varget and 8208xbr work well in my AR 1/8 twist. The 65 grain Sierra yields better accuracy.

I've had good luck in Texas with Barnes 62gr TSX. I usually night hunt with a Larue OBR 5.56, PS22 clip on in front of day scope and Gemtech One suppressor.

I attached a pic of a 300+ lb hog a friend shot on my place near Columbus, TX using the Barnes TSX. It was DRT.
