I have shot a couple of Cape Buff with the 400gr Original X bullet and some monolithic solids in my CZ550 416 Rigby and so far they have all performed well, for ME. Model 70 guy from here was with us on the 1st, and wildly successful on all counts 24hrcf Safari in 2006 and he had a 400gr X bullet veer off course in one of his several buffalo shot on that trip.
I will never forget, while hunting with mike (Model70guy) us sneaking up to within FIFTEEN FEET of a snoozing cape buffalo bull in double thick brush, and the PH then THEN THROWING ROCKS AT HIM! to get him standing so we could look him over! It worked, by golly, and the bull had soft bosses so we did not shoot, but I was glad that all three of us were carrying 416 Rigby's.
