Every thing is in the numbers even if proven wrong.We all know the 45-70 or the 454-475-500 some pistol calibers can kill the big 5 while others that meet the criteria have failed in performance.I personally wouldn't take the 300 Nosler or the 45-70 to africa even if they met the criteria.There are better choices out there for Africa.

That's what the joke is about.If a .450 Marlin could meet the criteria with a bullet designed for 45-70 velocities then something is wrotten in Denmark.Never been a big believer in SD-TKO-Energy etc.

Just my opinion and I don't bring it up over there.Jayco.
