what is the best ammo for that?  Well, besides TSX perhaps.  Bear claw? TAP?  

Thx

M193 works well.  Aim for the neck.

I heard that the bullets would just bounce off their armor though?

My baseball coach in high school shot a hog three times in the side with a 44mag at 15 yards. Then it took 4 rounds in the head and he was still kicking.
I shot one later that day with a 22lr in the back leg and it dropped dead. I hit the main artery and I guess it blew up on him. My coach was pissed!

62gr Federal Fusion, or Remington Hog Hammer works good.

Middle of the neck. I personally use 6.8 but my hunting partner only uses fmj 5.56 it will get the job done. Their back none runs through the center of their neck. Google it

If you hit the red the hog will drop in its tracks.  If you shoot it like you shoot a deer then there is a decent chance you wont find it.

I mainly shoot FMJ's because I have a lot of them and when riding around on the farm that is whats loaded.  No issues dropping them.  Also shoot them with a lot of Brown Bear HP's as it is about the most affordable HP's I can find.
