Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Express Rifles and Big Bores Only The great 458 Winchester. Everyone should own one at least once

Buffalo was shot at 40 yards range, broadside body hidden by brush, long grass and thorns, head visible and watching hunter, head erect but turned slightly to buffalo's right side,
buffalo watching hunter, thinking he was hidden well enough in the thicket.
Aim point was to right of center of brain pan.
Batter up !
Bullet: 300-gr/.375 TSX, from Blaser .375 H&H
I think it exited back of buffalo's head,
passing under thickest part of skull and bosses.
Will notify if not so.



Grand, old dagga boy:



Sir Toby, above, just got back from Africa.
For some reason he is replacing his Blaser R8 .375 H&H barrel with a .458 WinMag barrel and has started shooting
.458 WM+ loads with 450-gr TSX at 3.565" COL.
The Blaser magazine handles .375 H&H COL afterall.
His first loads were fired today, in his Blaser R8 !
