Has it ever happened to you..

What were u armed with?
.375 H&H with 300 grain barnes. 30 yards I think. One shot frontal brain. Her back feet went down so fast she left 10 feet of skid marks. She was doing over 30 miles per hour and breaking trees without slowing down. No question if it was a bluff charge. My P.H. was ready with a Heym 470 NE with 500 grain sledgehammers. It wasn't needed this time. Such a sad ending, it's been difficult to relay the story.

Interesting your PH was well equipped so were you. Did you use Barnes solids or TSX?

TSX. I'm sure I had solids in my belt but there wasn't time to consider reloading. Just put bullets in the target and hope you put them where they belong.

Agreed, shows that even a expanding does the trick with right placement

Hi Jon,
I saw your post for the .500 NE cases. Are these all brass or are they nickel plated? Hard for me to tell... sorry.
Thanks,
