I have a good bud I grew up with. He's mid 60's, in excellent shape and a crack shot. He's reloaded and hunted all his life. He has a .416 Rigby CZ he's shot for years, knows how to use it. He laughs and says it really get attention at the range when he lights off one of those 400 gr. slugs...
He told me a few days ago, he's considering an African Safari for Cape Buffalo. I told him about this site and maybe he'll check in.
To those of you who have been there, done that, what advice would you offer him.

Only been once and didn't use a 416 either, but did speak intensively with my PH about a lot of cartridges and bullets for Buff, first and foremost he likes a good soft, and softs only.
In 416 cal he likes the 350 gr TSX's and 400 gr A-Frames
375 H&H, 270 gr TSX's and 300 gr A-Frames
458 WM, 450 gr TSX's and 500 gr A Frames
I quickly saw a pattern there.
