HUNTING STORIES

I would think that the muzzle blast from a 416 Wby would be lethal at 75 yards

Poor old lion, there he is blinded by the muzzle flash, deaf from the report, 1/2 his hair singed off from the squirt of flame coming out the end of that thing

and the guy is still just a blazin away, probably taking the beating of his life from the recoil

I am surprised his PH didn't intervene because after about the 3 shot I can't believe either one of them was enjoying the experience

Just my thoughts

The PH may also have been singed. LOL
 
He shot it out of the front seat of a bakie. guess the PH couldnt get a shot off.

Nugget here. A guide gave me the nickname as I looked similar to Nugent at the time. Hunting for over 50 years yet I am new to hunting in another country and its inherent game species. I plan to do archery. I have not yet ruled out the long iron as a tag-along for a stalk. I am still deciding on a short list of game. Not a marksman but better than average with powder and string.

Hey mate,
How are you?
Have really enjoyed reading your thread on the 416WSM... really good stuff!
Hey, I noticed that you were at the SSAA Eagle Park range... where about in Australia are you?

Take care bud

may I suggest Intaba Safaris in the East Cape by Port Elizabeth, Eugene is a great guy, 2 of us will be there April 6th to April 14th. he does cull hunts(that's what I am doing) and if you go to his web site he is and offering daily fees of 200.00 and good cull prices. Thanks Jim
Everyone always thinks about the worst thing that can happen, maybe ask yourself what's the best outcome that could happen?
