Yep I know about hogs (some other comment somewhere I mentioned them) and the biggest stopping of 5.56 for hunting is usually a legal ban on them rather than practical with the right ammo. Honestly might be for the best because otherwise some Bubba with non-hollowpoint ammo and a crooked scope would be out there maiming deer.
I completely spaced on the use against coyotes. AR-15s seem about ideal for that.
Hogs is another common critter.
With the right hollow point and good shot placement, I don’t see it having a problem taking down a white tail

I’ve always hunted hogs with a 30-30 because hogs are pretty agressive and will attack.
