The Nosler 55 BT would be best all round but its just a little more spendy and it will blow chunks out of small pig. The 51gr Hammer AH has the advantage of around 300fps and I like the construction with the deep cavity and long petals.
    Try some 50grn zmax VMAX or the older spsx on wallabies....devistating results. They also won't exit pigs head,more opposite issue,getting deep enough,but anywhere in the earhole will work lol.
    75/15/10 black powder matters
