RE: What caliber for varmits & hogs?
I see the word "varmits" used here a lot. A lot more than can be explained by "it was just a typo..."
The word is "varmints."
To get back on topic... I use a .243 so as to get live practice withmy deer rifle.

I wasn't offended. Sorry if I offended you by questioning the spelling, as RLoving1 did it too, making it twice just in this thread. I've just seen that spelling an awful lot in various other threads, and it kind of piqued my curiousity. Where are you from? I've never heard the "var-mitt" pronunciation.

The biggest gun I own is a .243 and a 22-250 then a I hunt hogs and deer with both and score every year! Im not a fan of the need a canon club!
roll a 250 with a 60grn partition or barnes x bullet and it will kill anything texas has to offer for sure. 30-06 or 300 wsm wont kill anything if you cant hit what your shooting at.

I shoot mostly 95 Noslers in the 243,I shoot a 22-250 shooting52 gr Sierra match Kings on small game like prarie dogs and coyotes but would feel better aiming behind the ear with the light bullet on hogs the 95 gr would be ok tucked behind the shoulder at reasonable range.
