Best Hog gun

We talking thick woods or open fields?

Whatever you use for deer will work for hogs, but if you're buying a dedicated rifle for hogs, I would go 5.56 in an AR platform. If you plan to hunt large numbers in an open field where running pigs make head shots difficult, I would opt for more penetration. I've killed a pile with my .243, but I don't think you can go wrong with a .308 in an AR platform.

at what distances?

45-70 for me.

Several buddies who shoot night in fields like that use 7.62.39 or 300 blackout Night hunting open fields results in lots of shots and will end up costing a ton of you are buying 30$ a box ammo.
308. Will recoil considerably more than the others and not let you get as many follow up shots.

.300aac is what I use and it works great

anything with a ".3x" bullet.
personally i'm a huge 7.62x39 fan (AK or even better, SKS)

grenade launcher

I'm doing a hog build now.

Christensen MPP in 300blk. 7.5 inch bolt action

Zeiss 1-6 or Vortex 1-10. I have both so I'll play with which one I like.

CGS Helios QD Ti when it gets released and for now a Hyperion. Stupid quiet and light.

I’ve been hog hunting only once in my life and my AR10 with old school iron sights worked just fine. I don’t have a lot of experience but I love my 308.
