I've never heard of the .308 remmy. There is a cartridge named the .308 Winchester, and there is an outfit in Ilion, NY that makes nice rifles. I'm sure that a good Remington in .308 should do just fine.

He was using the wrong bullet, pushing it too fast, or of the wrong weight. We shoot hogs around here with .30-30s, using 170 grain flat nose cast bullets at about 1900 fps. Great penetration, through-and-through. A 75 lb pig isn't that big. Almost any cartridge should do fine on pigs that size.
