Before and after. The mushroomed projectile was retrieved after a 35yd broadside shot on a cape buffalo, from the off shoulder. 1 shot kill. Retained weight was 497.7gr. Perfect!
@Foxi I used my Interarms Mauser No.X in 458 Win Mag. Penetration went right through the chest: bullet entered the left shoulder and was found just under the skin of the right. I load 72gr of AH2206H powder, and use either Woody 500gr RNSN OR FMJs (identical SDs, with BCs of .328 and .325 respectively). This load is very accurate and has a MV of around 2130fps.
