Hi again Marius. The 380 grn Rhino is 1.6" long. According to the Greenhill formula, this length of .375 bullet will be stabalized by a 1:13 twist rate and almost all .375 H&H's have 1:12 twists so these bullets are well stabalized - well that is my experience. Kobus van der Westhuisen who...

Hi Marius - yes I am sure the Partition at that excessive velocity did not penetrate into the chest cavity. I was convinced the thick frontal chest skin and the 'trampoline effect 'stopped' it - releasing all its kinetic energy which caused the bull to drop to the ground but as mentioned it was...

Given a buffalo's exceptional senses, it is not easy to get in a killing shot at a buffalo before it becomes aware of your presence. And when it does so, it will invariably turn to look at you with its nose uplifted. Because of this, it is my experience that the majority of shots at buffalo...

Unfortunately, my Africa's Most Dangerous is out of print, but copies can be found on ebay I am working on a revised edition but it will be some time before it is published.

Here you go!

No comparison. The frontal core of the Nosler Partition is not bonded so it gets shed as soon as the bullet expands - this reduces it weight by 30% which in turn reduces monentum and therefore penetration. A-Frames retain their frontal core and therefore weight and so penetrate a lot better...

An important part of any hunt, especially a dangerous game one, is mental preparation. The attached article is from when I used to write for Sports Afield. After it was published, I had an interesting experience. I was at the Safari Press booth at the DSC show signing copies of my Perfect...

Hi Sailfish9453 I have a WJ Jeffery .450/.400 NE 3" double which I would like to sell. I won the rifle on the recent Double Rifle Society raffle. It is cased and in superb condition. It comes with some once fired Hornady cases, 50 Woodleigh FMJ's, 50 Weldcores and a box of Swift Break Away...

Hi PaulB. Would you be interested in another WJ Jeffery .450/.400 NE 3". It's an extractor model and in superb condition, cased as well. Made in 1908. The rifle is here in Texas.

Good morning All and greetings from Texas! I see I'm being mentioned a lot on this thread, so I will fill in the blanks. I have been in Texas for 6 years now, where I'm a consultant in the exotic wildlife industry. Texas is the world's new Noah's Ark - there are 1.6 million head of exotics...

I go and shoot at Joshua Creek regularly so drive past Popo's often. Also drive through Bandera almost on a weekly basis to visit exotic ranches all over south TX

I live in Boerne - welcome

Try eBay of Abc Books. I have started on a Revised edition - but it'll be a few yrs before it is out.
