243 and Wild Bore

Took out a few wild bores today with my 243 BRNO. To my surprise the bores dropped flat with one shot.

Does anyone else hunt wild bores or similar sized game with 243 Win.?

Lots of people use 243 for wild boar. Pretty much any cartridge capable of killing deer will kill wild boar very well. They're not bulletproof.
