Welcome to a really great gun forum! I think you will enjoy it here.
All copper GMX or Barnes and 100-grain bullet weight. Nothing less.
Love me some .243 Winchester (a LOT) but against a hog shoulder armor the bullet really has to hold together and keep 100% retained weight, IMHO. Range limitations for hunting hogs really don't require match grade accuracy, but the BULLET has to be a tank.

Welcome aboard and I hope you post a hello in the New Member Welcome area.
We got my boy a Savage Axis II in .243 which I think has the same barrel twist as the Mossberg Patriot. After a year of shooting it, it really likes heavier bullets which dovetails well into the advice from Nitesite. It really liked 95 - 105 grain bullets.
