Many comments from guys who can probably shoot.well.
(1) Awhile back a guy posted that when going fr dangerous game that one reason to tote a giant blaster out into the field, because when they can't hit their animal where they should they will possibly do enough damage to drop it anyway.
(2) Another said that no matter what, keep shooting until the rifle is empty into the animal because with a misshit even if it's down it will probably get up and head for Lybia where you ain't welcomed.
Some guys here recommend the 375 H&H for everything which leads me to believe that they must be good shots. Of course there are those who also have the same chant as well as some who spew it's attributes even though they don't own one,as well as some who couldn't pick one out of a line up.
The Cape Buffalo , or as many of the more dramatic call them, " black death" , " dugga boy" and a few other handles which make me laugh like hell are much sought after in Africa as the new pinnacle of dangerous game trophy as they are the cheapest and most abundant are relatively an easy kill for a true marksman .
Relatively easy to walk up on, anyone who can hit a 6" target offhand can easily drop one in it's tracks with the H,&H.
One thing seems to shock the hell out of me and that is that many people here appear to have different standards of accuracy for different sized animals and calibers.
A 500 anything is OK to shoot a 12" group, where a 223 I held to the offhand minimum of 1 1\2" Why is that?
