Congrats - Nice bull!
 
No bull, I agree with everyone else!! However, I'll cut you some slack, please include the rest of the story in the very near future.

Taken with a Winchester Model 70 in .375 H&H Magnum, using 300 gr. Woodleigh Weldcore PP bullets. 4 shots, placed as quickly as possible in the boiler room.

Congratulations! A fine looking buff!
As mentioned, it would be nice to see how the Woodleighs looked after the damage if you managed to keep them?
 
Nice bull, well done Arizonajake. As a matter of interest, what did your PH carry?
 
Did you recover any of the woodleigh protected point bullets? I’ll be taking some with me to Zimbabwe next week.
@375Fox what will you be hunting here? And what rifle choice? I hope you have a wonderful trip, there have been some great hunts so far this year.

I was only able to recover 1 out of 4 bullets fired. The bullet was found on the far shoulder, completely mangled. The other 3 passed through. Unfortunately I could not get a good focus with my camera lens.

As mentioned earlier, I could not get good pictures of the one bullet which remained in the buff. However, they did the job.

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
