Thats fine for the first 90kg Boar but what about the other 4 or 5 >
throw the 223 in the bin if you chase pigs regularly and want to knock em over.

My main rifle these days is my 223, loaded with hand loaded 55gr V-Max. ( 1 in 12 twist) (I also load the 55gr game kings)
This rifle has taken more rabbits (Although quite scarce lately), foxes, hares, small pigs and most of the Deer I have shot in the last several years.
I keep my shots within 200 meters, and only shoot if I know I will successfully drop the animal I am targeting.
The 223 is ALWAYS accompanied by one of its close friends being either a 308, 270, 30-06 or 300 Win Mag just in case.![]()
I agree with the above comments, if I am targeting pigs then I will either use the 308 or larger calibres.
But to answer your question, MY 223 has dropped more pigs than any other calibre.
These are MY experiences
