Today I was able to get steel tape together with some full-grown domestic sows kept indoors. These are a proprietary breed with as little size variation as possible and chances are they're bigger than feral hogs, being better fed and less exercised. All were one to three years old, and younger ones will generally be smaller and older ones may grow bigger in the wild. But this should give you some ideas.
Nearly all their snouts were close to 4" across, or 10cm, or 1 mil at 100m, although the snout is the part that moves around most, so lotsa luck milling one.
Shoulder width 13-14"
Ear span up to 21" fully deployed, but they flop around a lot, again you'll need luck
Ground to spine 30-36"
Belly from base of teats to spine 21-24"
Rump to forward edge of foreleg 45", maybe a little shorter on some
Rump width 14-15"
Snout to aft root of ear 14-15"
I haven't seen any feral hogs outside for a few months and might not have a chance to test these in the field for awhile. Corrections and additions are welcome.
