Not to be confused by a Cape Buff. This was a Water Buff which is about as docile as a cow... until you shoot it. Horrifying moment president of Mexico's Hunting Federation is killed by a buffalo after firing a .408 caliber rifle at the one-ton beast in Argentina Mexican hunter, Mario Canales, was killed by a buffalo during a hunting outing in Entre Ríos, Argentina, last Friday The 64-year-old avid hunter and another friend were taking aim at the one-ton animal when it charged at them and rammed Canales The group's tour guide was standing near the men and fired five shots and killed the buffalo Canales was rushed to a hospital but went into shock and died before arriving An autopsy revealed that he suffered multiple rib and sternum fractures as well as blows to the abdomen By ADRY TORRES PUBLISHED: 14:10 EDT, 13 October 2022 | UPDATED: 14:29 EDT, 13 October 2022 Terrifying video footage shows an avid Mexican hunter being gored by a buffalo before he died at a hospital during a hunting trip in the central Argentine city of Entre Ríos. Mario Canales, 64, and a friend were kneeling about 100 feet away as they aimed and fired at the one-ton beast in the town of Punta Caballos. Canales, who was holding a .408 caliber rifle, was unable to bring down the buffalo when it chased him and his friend. https://videos.dailymail.co.uk/vide...801/1024x576_MP4_2902615367482718801.mp4

Sometimes you’re the windshield, sometimes you’re the bug.
They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

What's a 408? Doesn't look like a Cheytac.

Shooting a water buff is about as challenging as shooting a cow or a bison. The top Mexican "hunter" botched a simple shot then didn't have the technical abilities to kill a mad cow and died as a result. That's want I call Karma or just abject stupidity and incompetence. Take your pick...

Agreed, it appears there may be some spoofery afoot, or, someone doesn't know the difference between Argentina and Africa.

Take your pick... People raise and eat cows, bison, and buffaloes. If any of those killed a ranch hand or slaughterhouse worker only a vegetarian would call it "karma." #truecolors

I probably hit more elk with a pickup than you have with a rifle. I have yet to see anyone claim Leupold has never had to fix an optic. I know I have sent a few back. 2 MK 6s, a VX-6, and 3 VX-111s.

I wasn't very clear. I'm not saying it didn't happen. I just don't believe that the attached video is related to the actual event.
