.243 potential???

What is the MAX for a .243? I know it is okay for whitetail, but I am starting to inquire about wild boar hunting here in Oklahoma. And the .243 with 100 grain bullets is my maximum power right now. I do not want to go out under gunned, it’s not fair to the animal, I truly have moral issues hunting with the wrong tool for the wrong job.

I am usually an accurate shot, but I’ve never been under gunned. In Germany I used .243 for Roe Deer, and .308 and .30-06 for everything bigger, and down calibered for fox.
