I think there's a wide gap between what's good for hog hunting and what's good for punching paper. From what you said so far though, I would be inclined towards a scope with a 2.5-3x bottom magnification.

If you can spend $1500 you could get something like a Leupold VX5HD 3-15x which would close the gap and do pretty well for both applications.

If you are spending say $200-$300 something like a Nikon Prostaff 7 3-12x42 or a Vortex Diamondback HP 3-12x42 would probably work well.
