Not sure what all they build, but Leupold builds both fixed and variable power scopes.
For a .308 Win, I don't think I'd select a fixed power.
For a variable, I like the 2.5-7.
Plenty power for long shots. Good field of view up close.
A 3-9 would also work well, but it's size may overwhelm the M11's carbine "ish" size.

I’d recommend open sights for hog hunting but if you desire a scope, get one with an exceptional field of view and a large exit pupil (easy to see through it as you raise the scope to your eye). In combination these scope features will be most important for close up, fast moving dangerous game. Not sure what price range you are in but the Bushnell Legend Ultra HD 1.75-5x32mm has a 147 foot field of view at 100 yards (that lets you see wide and high). Safado's 1-4 Nikon is great too with a 93 foot field of view.
