From being around a hog hunting operation for quite a while..I have learned that shot placement is the key. For the .243 Id suggest a good 100gr bullet and a head shot. I have killed my share with the .243, .308 and even the .223 in this fashon. IMHO the big bore "hog buster" rounds dont work as well as good shot placement with a lighter caliber. I made a perfect shot in the shoulder with a .270 loaded with 140gr bullets and still lost the hog...so im a firm beliver in the head shot theory. Back to your question and stop my rambling...I use the Hornady 100gr BTSP. It has done well for me.
