38 special
It depends on what you mean. A .38 revolver may be a .38 special, but there are other types of .38 besides just the special round.
.38 Special, .38 Long Colt, .38 Short Colt. .38 S&W CANNOT be used in a .38 Special. .38 Special can be fired from a .357 Magnum weapon, but .357 Magnum cannot be fired from a .38 Special weapon.
Depends which type of .38 you're referring to. When most people say ".38", they're referring to the .38 Special. Firearms chambered in .38 Special can fire .38 Special cartridges, and nothing else. The .38 Special can also be fired from a .357 Magnum revolver (but only from revolvers - not from anything with a headspaced chamber). The .38 Special is not compatible with the .38 S&W Long, .38 Super, or any other type of .38 caliber cartridge.
no the 38 bullet is fatter and and the special is smaller
No, the rimless .38 Super is not compatible with the rimmed .38 Special.

It is possible to kill a wild hog with a .223 caliber rifle, but it may not be the most effective choice due to the size and toughness of the hog. It's recommended to use a larger caliber rifle for hunting hogs to ensure a clean and ethical kill.
