"I would think a 338WM would work just fine"
Quak: Col. Jeff Cooper's first buff hunt was with a 338 WM. He was a good shot. It did not go well. That is why he built Baby, a 450 G&A. When I asked him if a better bullet would have resulted in a better outcome he laughed at me. Since you have:" not hunted in Africa" I am going to stick with my 416 Ruger I have used for 4 buff. Since African cape buffalo cost about $14,000 now and 416 Ruger rifles are $700 (if you shop around) I leave my 338 WM home.
