What does one have to do to get in on this nilgai hunt? I have wanted to hunt one for years and now that my Africa itch has been temporarily satisfied, I would love a spot and stalk nilgai hunt. Does anyone think my 8mm mag is too light assuming proper bullet placement. Also I am a Texan. Porsche73
It ain't the way it used to be, but it will do.

DF Way to light for this here New Mexican. We use .460 Wby's for jackrabbits. Works great. Minimal blood shot meat and good penetration. How could a guy go wrong there?... . Should work on a Nilgai too...
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

I hunt with less powerful cartridges than most Texans. I use special bullets though that I get from my friend Ernest Lee Sincear. He gets them from a curandera in Mexico.
Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me.
