Hello Gents,

Just wondering if anyone has tried the Hydrostatic projectiles from Woodleigh.
They seem to perform tremendously on 100-300 kg class animals in 358 but are quite a chore to get feeding due to the size of the flat nose area.
Id love to hear any comments on thier use for Buffalo and heavy antelope like Eland.

thanks for any thoughts.
 
Robah, see the post Woodleigh Hydrostatic projectiles that I posted recently. And yes, it appears that most who use them are experiencing some feeding problems. However, there is no denying the excellent performance I observed on buffalo. Would like to see how well they work on elephant.

Cheers
Ben
 
No problem with a Blaser 9.3x62 but we could not get them to feed from a M98 458Win.

Thanks for the responses guys, looks like they might be better left for doubles.
Feeding issues aint what I'm after in a DGR.
cheers

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
