To provide the “coop de greasy” of course.

Personally, I don't think I would set out to hunt wild pigs with anything chambered in .223 / 5.56.

I'd be inclined to use some variant of a .30 caliber rifle as my primary weapon with a back-up handgun in .45ACP, .357 magnum - or maybe even .454 Casull.

Recently walked up on a group of 20 - 30 hogs while I was backpacking in west Tn. Five adults in the 250 - 300 lb class. The rest were less than 100 lbs. I was 20 miles from help and nobody knew exactly where I was. I dropped my ruck. Pulled my 40 cal and got real close to a good climbing tree. They passed about 20 yards away. Decided that discretion was the better part of valor. I put as much distance between us as possible. Plan on going back to the area with my 300AAC. I hear the little one are good eating.

It’s good to carry a pistol when you’re not hunting too.

In fact, the only place it’s really not a good idea to carry a pistol is in the shower. I’m sure that Fobus makes a plastic bucket-holster for that too. Of course, where it clips is another story.

Guns - Meh

Try catch dogs and knives.

Closest thing I ever came to combat.

So if you hit a large boar at say 100 yds, and you think you killed it, but your round only knocked it out for a few seconds, and it gets up all pissed off and charges you, and you find out that was your last round, and you have to quickly climb the nearest tree, and you’re up in that tree for two hours until the boar gets bored, then you will bring a hand cannon next time.

What a sentence, huh?
