Also, I'm not a big fan of the 7.62x39 cartridge. And finding soft points might be problematic as well.

If you want to go semi auto for your bacon bullet thrower, I'd go with your original suggestion of the .300 BLK AR.

Or, you know, the old .30-30 kills hogs just as dead.
To be fair, the main gripe against the Galil appeared to be weight, especially compared to an M16.
