What are your thoughts, I'm headed ocver to Zimbabwe in July with my .375 Ruger and have my sights set on Buffalo and Hippo.
I know i won't have an issue with any plains game with these projies, my question relates to the solids, will they be ok for the Buff and Hippo?

I like the idea of them being matched in trajectory etc, not having to think too much about the different projies performance in my magazine. Don't want to miss or lose an animal when you're paying the big bucks ha ha.

Cheers
Bruce
 
I think you will be fine, shot placement is critical.

Just moving to DM. Yes, please ask your friend if he knows somebody who might be willing to support a persistent hunt in the snow.

Hi Paul,
This is Daniel from Mankazana Safaris.

I saw your post regarding a hunt in Africa. I am sure you have been bombarded with messages and replies from other outfitters, so I will keep this one quick.
I have a feeling we have exactly what you need for a first safari.
If you'd like to hear more, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Yours sincerely,

If you ever decide to sell this rifle, I will buy it with the dies, bullet, brass, the works. Dan
