Hello Everyone. I am currently planning my second cape buffalo hunt in Africa. Rented a 378 Weatherby using a 300 Barnes TSX bullet. Buff killed with one shot. Bullet mushroomed perfectly with the petals.
Just purchased a 375 H & H CZ 550 American Safari rifle with kevlar stock. Wanted to use Barnes TSX 300 grain for my soft point, but noticed that Barnes had discontinued their banded solid in 375. Contacted a company rep, who related that it was considered an armor piercing round by the BATF, therefore they had to discontinue it. Wanted to use a solid with the same point of impact as the Barnes TSX 300 grain bullet. Any suggestions?
