I have a theory that some of the toughness of Cape Buffalo was perpetrated by using solids of yesteryear. Given the quality of softs back then, solids were the dependable/ logical choice.

I have to go no farther back than witnessing the difference between solids and softs (hollowpoints) out of a 22 rimfire on small game to know which is better for quick humane kills.
