    9.3x62 Barnes 250 Grain TSX or Nosler E-Tip 250 Grain for PG up to Eland

    Whichever one shoots better in your rifle. Either is a good bullet. I’ve used e-Tips in my 7mm RMag on plenty of PG in Africa - they shoot great in my rifle and hold together as expected. Also used e-Tips in Alaska on a Sitka Deer as well as a Mountain Goat. In fact, I have a bunch of...

    Federal's 7mm Back Country - What is your opinion?

    I see zero point in the new cartridge. At 80k psi, that thing is going to be LOUD and recoil will be more pronounced. It quite literally is forcing people to ante up for a silencer, add another 10-12 ounces and 7” to a rifle. Unless someone wanted to hunt at extreme distances…in which case...

    Out of curiosity what is the best bullet for use in 44 Mag for Africa?

    Lehigh Defense make a bullet very similar to that. If I were forced to choose one bullet in the .429 caliber to load up heavy in my .44, this would be it. https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1019442111?pid=544565 I’ve also loaded up 310 gr. Hardcast bullets in the WFNGC design. I suspect...

    Out of curiosity what is the best bullet for use in 44 Mag for Africa?

    I have read on many occasions “this bullet could be reloaded and used again”. I challenge you, Good Sir. Please do! Would you load that same bullet a second time and take a second game animal please? I’d love to know how many times a single bullet could take how many possible game animals...

    Would this Ruger No. 1 in 300 PRC be a good choice for Plains Game?

    A No. 1 is a fine rifle to use for PG. I took a Merkel K1 single shot in 7mm RM for my second safari and never felt slighted by it. As to the PRC, I used a .300 H&H in a Pre-64 M70 on my first safari…there’s absolutely nothing not to love about a 180gr. Mono-metal at 3,000 fps.
