Distances?

On an AK you are pretty much limited to 100yds as its pretty much iron sights.
The 6.8 should be deadly out to 400 yds.

200 max. Our lanes aren't cut that long.

I guess it comes down to which platform you would prefer?

Well, the 6.8 will have more choices for hunting bullets but I don't know that you will care that much for hogs.

I built the 6.8 for deer and pigs. It will work very well on both. It is the best for either but it's a good compromise.

Look into the 6.5 creedmoor. It maybe a good substitute as well

Sorry, not the creedmoor, the 6.5 Grendel.

I've had some trouble with the Barnes fouling after a couple shots in my son's 7-08. 
I think the newer TTSX addressed that problem with the grooves.
