What you need is Artemida .45-70.
Since you quoted me I am assuming you mean
I need the Artemida, which I do not. Not for hogs. Not for me. It is a non-ejector gun, and while hogs do not have the aura of other dangerous game I can assure you that the situation can turn nasty in the blink of an eye, and digging cases out of an extractor gun is not something I want to be doing when I have enraged a 400# hog with 3" long cutters bearing down on me. I already bought what I need, and it is highly specialized. We do not hunt hogs for sport ........ we hunt hogs to eliminate as many of them as possible, without getting ourselves a fast ride to the ER to get sewed up. We use AR15s in 300 Blackout, with either a IR Defense Hunter or a ATN Thor thermal scope atop it. We ride the fields at night in a rig that has a remote controlled thermal camera on the roof and a monitor on the dashboard and look for hogs. When we find some that we can approach with the wind right, we park the rig, slip close enough on foot to surgically place the 110 gr. hollow point behind the ear, and kill as many of the group as we can.
A good friend of mine shot a hog with a .243 several years ago, one afternoon. The hog ran into a big briar patch. He chambered another round and approached the place the hog went into. In a flash the hog charged out of the briars, Doc fired and missed. The hog knocked him down. The hog got on him and proceeded to slice him up with his tusks as Doc lay on his back trying to protect his face and neck with his arms. The hog backed off a couple of feet and stood there popping his tusks in rage. Doc slowly got his rifle, worked the bolt, pointed the muzzle at it while holding the barrel with his left hand, and pulled the trigger with his thumb, killing the hog. Only then did he see the arterial spurting of blood from his arm. He got to the truck and rode half hour to the ER, barely making it before succumbing to blood loss.
No extractor hog guns for me, thank you.
