when the mind set is using a high end double using solid bullets.
Kurt No sir, solids are not recommended nor should they by used on Cape Buffalo. In the old days, yes, because cup and core bullets failed, but today, PHs eschew solids except for elephant, rhino and hippo on DRY LAND. j
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

What about those big boomers you left in the safe.
Do they ever get a shot or is the Sharps a repeat...?

I'll always have a Sharps rifle accompany me on any return trips to Africa, will certainly have one of the 'boomers along too, how wili I ever justify ownership of an 8-Bore 577 NE, 505 Gibbs, 500 NE, 458 WM or 375 H&H to Wifey if they sit idling on humid free air in the safes?

Did I hear "justify"...?
Had a guy fly down from Shreveport a few years ago in a Citation 10; we were working on a business deal. My pard and I were drooling over that airplane. This guy had a couple of ranches in NM and I asked if the NM ranches help justify that bird. His comment, you can't justify it, just gotta want it...
I remembered that.

Very funny 'Gwe, DF and Cross, and oh yes, correct on ALL counts. P.S., I have heard this about you Poohbah.  I am in the process of adopting one of Wifeys particular views on growing older, I, like she, want to die broke and completely exhausted.
