Sir Jerry shot a cape buffalo at 31 yards.
It was a "high shoulder" hit in the tall grass, with 404-gr Shock Hammer at 2518 fps MV from .458 WM+ load.
Rifle barrel was 24" long, a JES rebore of a stainless .375 M70 Classic barrel on an M70 Classic action, walnut stocked,
with SAAMI .458 Winchester Magnum chamber.

The bullet exited the offside shoulder.
The dagga boy dropped dead right there.
