In 2007 a hunting companion on a safari in South Africa took a .338 Winchester Magnum and Federal factory loads with 225 AccuBonds. He killed his first 12 animals with one shot, including a couple of bull kudu, a very nice waterbuck, a zebra stallion and a gemsbok, before trying to get fancy on a blue wildebeest he tried to shoot in the head, because he wanted the hide for a rug. Had to use another round on the wildebeest. He finished up the safari with another 1-shot kill on another blue wildebeest, ending up with 14 animals with 15 shots.

Oh, and it was his first safari.
