You guys are making my shoulder ache all over again! I used to get these velocities in my 450 Dakota and fully recall how unpleasant shooting them was! Glad I’m past that stage these days. If my 416s won’t get it done I’ll have to hunt other game. But it’s fun reading what all you guys are up to.
RIP, I still love my 375Wby but these days my hunting doesn’t need it’s fire power. Hate to say it but I think my days of hunting in Africa are over. Trophy importation will be getting worse and eventually might end completely for any of the Big 5.
