Looking for the best hog hunting calibers? The 300 Blackout (300 AAC BLK) shines for pigs—especially from short, lightweight AR-15s and in thick brush. Supersonic loads (110–150 gr) deliver hard-hitting energy for broadside shots, while subsonic options pair perfectly with suppressors for quiet, night-time setups. Compared with .223, 7.62×39, and .308, 300 Blackout balances recoil, terminal performance, and compact barrel lengths—ideal for stalking, spot-and-shoot, or thermal hunts. Choose tough, expanding bullets (bonded or copper) for reliable penetration and quick stops. Shop 300 Blackout ammo and components at Duck Creek Sporting Goods to build the perfect hog rig.
