Can a 1000 fps air rifle kill a pig?

It's not the speed of the pellet it's the size and the type of the pellet. Yes a .177 caliber pellet can kill a pig but it most likely would take several shots, depending on where you hit it. Also "Hunting or hollow point pellets" should be used. A head or heart shot is best. I suggest At least a 25 caliber pellet should be used. If you can afford a a good hunting pellet rifle then I suggest a .25 cal Marauder, a 357 Rogue or a .50 cal Sam Yang. But these are expensive and have devistating power because they at PCP class rifles. (PreCharged Pneumatic) There are a few .25 cal springers or Nitro gas like the "Benjamin trail NP XL" that are a better choice than a .177 cal pellet rifle. .177 usually are not recommended for hunting anything larger than a rodent.

Can you kill a big pig with a 22 caliber pistol?

No. If the pig finds out you shot him with a .22 the pig will get mad and rip you to shreds. There is a chance that a really lucky shot will work. This is not something you should count on. .22 magnum has a better chance of working, but still is kind of small for a pig.
