    Billed after a safari question

    First off it was a mistake for the wife/hunter to take a shot that she was not 100% confident in. I feel this was a poor decision by the one pulling the trigger. That being said, the issue to pay for an animal should have been discussed then, that day, period. No blood and no video or...

    .375 or .416 for Cape buffalo?

    You are all crazy I only use a .223 and shoot them in the eye. THIS IS THE ONLY WAY!! Naw, just kidding. Shoot whatever caliber that is legal and you shoot well. Consistent shot placement in the "correct" spot is far and away better than how big a thing you throw at them.
