Vmax is not well suited for hogs unless plan on doing head shots. Bullet designed to fragment on impact for max damage to small bodied target (Varmint) that a traditional bullet would otherwise zip right through without a chance to even expand. A buddy shot a 150lbs hog at 50 yards and all of damage was exterior and not terminal. Luckily, one small fragment managed to puncture the heart... spent +1 hour tracking/searching in the dark. I made him switch bullets to Barnes Tac-tx. Worth the extra money for clean, quick kills and no tracking required.

If your going after as a meat pig, I would probably use a different bullet.
If you just want to shoot them and don't care if they run off to die. It will probably work just fine.
Me personally I will shoot them with whatever is in the gun, I just want them to die. I hate pigs.
