Does anybody have experience hunting with the .450 bushmaster in Africa?

Good pig caliber....forget about it for Africa.....
 
That's considerably less case than a 458 WM, which is the starting line of African DG hunting. Then, the unsuitable bullet availability (too low M, SD, V, ME.) Likely fun for hogs using ARs in choppers! lol I believe it has a small cult fanbase in places like OH where only straightwall centerfires are legal (for deer.) It's as if a corporate committee was assembled, and they sat around the table...."how can we get something with a big number (.450) into the hands of people that desire something with a big number, but make it profitable for us?" Introducing: The .452-30-30! In mfg., it's ALL about using LESS today! And, from the factories I tour for work, it's also ALL about using less Americans in the workforce. DEI's only documented attribute is that it slows down Natural Selection. LOL

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.
