sure, if your packing a rocket launcher maybe i might just be interested.
Only slightly larger than the White Rhino. I think any of the Nitro Express Calibers could handle him.
 
The responses are way overthinking this the mighty .243 at 600 yards would be sufficient with proper bullet and bullet placement. However, I'm sure any 6mm variant could be just as effective at 400 yards.

There are better calibers starting with a .4 using much better bullets. The debate remains: should a solid or a soft point be the first shot.

All feasible options. Just don't use a 375H&H ;)

No, no, no--you're thinking of the 6.5 Creedmore at those ranges! If it doesn't say "Creedmore" it probably won't kill a woolly rhino.

Here's a photo of Tony receiving that Shaw & Hunter award at the 1970 annual EAPHA Dinner Dance. Tony Dyer, then EAPHA President and Princess (Sunny) von Auersperg presented it. I also attended the event.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ

What is the minimum you would take.
