    Leopard bullet choice

    I used a tsx for my leopard. Had the same concerns you had. My leopard went 40 yds and was down. No hide damage. Don't overthink it, just aim true

    375/06 Encore

    it's a 16" barrel. I have a lab radar and will be chronographing. I won't use that over 100 yds. Last time I went I shot my bear at 32 yds walking straight at me. He didn't know I was there. 375 H&H was nice in that scenario.

    anyone loaded for this? Thinking of using Barnes 270 lrx. Going to try for a Kodiak brown bear. Load data would be great if anyone has it.

    Dakota Traveler For Sale 416 Rigby/338 Lapua

    I'm selling this gun because I'm having another 416 made. I ran across an original Rigby action circa 1910 in great shape. I used the 416 for plains game and carried my 450/400 for bigger stuff. I initially thought the 416 was a bit much for plains game, but it ended up being an excellent...

    Selling my Dakota. Has 200 rounds through each barrel. 416 shoots 1/2 moa with Barnes TSX. Didn't shoot 338 a lot but in a small bit of shooting it was 3/4-1 moa with barnes 225 ttsx. I have no experience with 338 so that could probably be improved upon. EXIHIBITION grade wood, gun is in...

    300 win mag 180 grain Swift Scirocco

    Thanks you for the help. I think I'll start with H4831sc with the bullets .050 off the lands. Planning on shooting a 10 shot ladder in .2 grain increments to the max charge over a chrony.

    HUNTING Giraffe

    I shot mine with a 450/400.......8times and 8 miles later he was dead! Those vitals are high and tight on that front leg. My first 2 shots were 3" back from perfect. I think 338 is fine. Put it where it belongs or you'll get to watch trackers for a while

    375 H & H Bullets

    Guide said I didn't NEED solids for 416 but it wouldn't hurt to have some. I did not think out my ratio of solids to softs very well considering that I was hunting leopard as well. Need to shoot lots of bait for leopard...! I didn't take long before I was pretty short of TSX's for the 416, so...

    375 H & H Bullets

    I agree with the above, but I always do what guide says. If he says bring solids, he most likely wants them used once the initial shot is taken with softs. Switch to solids for tracking. I think it starts the hunt off on a good note if you do what the guide asks you to do. Last time I went I...

    375 H & H Bullets

    I just returned. My PH wanted us to bring solids as well. I called Barnes and got same answer you did. They suggested the Nosler solids. I used those and they shot within an 1 1/2" of my 300 grains TSX in 375 H&h

    I'm having a hard time deciding what scope to put on my rifle

    I'm more of an AND kind of guy. If I were doing what you are doing I would load some 250 grain barnes ttsx for the plains game. It shoots just about as flat as a 300 win mag with 4477 ft lbs of energy at the muzzle and top it with a 2x12 vx 6 if it fits without hitting back sights. I'd then...
