I can't even remember where I read/heard that story; it was obviously some source that I respected, as I never did my own research. Now, I can't find any reference to a .357 killing a rhino by anyone.

Many apologies for the absence of due-diligence. My main point was more directed at our propensity for ever growing "minimums". Like maddog likes to say about his .45-70 "bouncing off" game animals! Though I haven't blooded my Swede, yet, the testing I've done with it has impressed me greatly. If its all I had (and I had time to shoot it) when a big bear attacked, I don't think I'd throw it, and run! That said, I'd gladly take it in pursuit of black bear.

So did you hear about when Ingwe dropped a woolly mammoth with a pellet gun? laugh
