This is more of a general hunting question, but since I hunt hogs more than anything else, my question goes here.
For my Mosin-Nagant 91/30, I currently have the steel-core FMJ surplus rounds for it, but since I'm starting to run low on them, I'll be getting a couple boxes of 7.62x54R soon. I read that full metal jacket rounds suck for hunting, so I plan on getting hollowpoints, but when my dad found out, he said, "You don't use hollowpoints for hunting, they break up inside the hog and get bits of metal everywhere, ruining the meat. You use hollowpoints on people" Is my dad correct about this? If so, what type of 7.62x54R should I get?
Another question: I was told earlier that the WW2 bolt actions like my Mosin aren't that great for hog hunting. So if they aren't that great, and an AR-15/AR-10 is too pricey for me, what would be a good hog hunting rifle that's not too expensive? A SKS?
