3 Dangerous Game Safaris, 2 rifles only, wich calibers?

[IvW]

Thank you for the in depth reply,
For deer i have always used barnes, i looked up the rhino projectiles and they now import them to australia. I think I'll give the expanders a run in my 275 rigby.

When i eventually get on to buff up north I'll be definitely looking to load rhino now.

Cheers

Use the 170 gr Rhino in the 275 Rigby, great bullet

I sometimes like to look at Utube hunting videos when I can get this pad to work and got a good chuckle when I watched a Florida guide telling everyone how they should have a 375H&H with an a frame bullet to kill a piggy and how dangerous they are.

A minute later he shoots one in the shoulder and it runs
off.

He then starts talking again and says," see! I told you how tough they are they don't even stop when hit with an elephant round".

It looked to be a 100 pound porker that was just shot with a bullet that whistled through him like crap through a goose.

If a shooter can hit his mark and uses the correct bullet for the size and weight of game he won't ever have to do much chasing.

Hogwash!

A 300 gr Swift A frame from a 375 H&H, will kill any pig with the right shot placement, period.

No kidding.

What I wrote is what is on you tube. Search it out . " Florida guide shoots hog" would be a good place to start. It's unfortunate that he's just self proclaimed expert on all things . But just because I wouldn't shoot hogs to eat with a 375 doesn't mean that everyone else can not.

Any thing comming out of a 375 will easily kill a hog. They just ain't that tough.



I use .a 223 or a 6.5 Grendle and they all take a nap.
