Does your gun have the square back trigger guard or the round trigger guard?  If squareback they take Super Blackhawk grips, if round Blackhawk/Vaquero grips work.  I'm not sure about the scopemount, best ask Ruger.  As far as using the conversion cylinder to hog hunt with:  Don't, the conversion cylinders are only meant for light cast bullet loads, Cowboy Action type loads only.  Where I have hog hunted in the past the hogs took a lot more than 250 gr lead slugs at 850 to put down.
