Odd ball penetration question but curious...

Personally, I definitely won't be facing a charge with a solid. A Swift A Frame drills a hole through any hard boss.
 
At the Houston Safari convention I spoke a dozen PH as well as hunters that have double or triple digits DG under their belts. I always enquired about the gun they use and the ammo/bullets that go with them..
Swift A Frames was ubiquitous but many of them spoke very highly of the NF bullets, and ated them as excellent. I think one of them preferred Federal Sledgehammers.

I shoot the 570gr Swift A Frames out of my 500 N.E. I don't think that you will go wrong with the NF, but will also say this. I can't make a distinction in effectiveness between the Swift A Frames and Rhino Solid Shanks. Actually quite proud for something of that quality to be coming out of South Africa. Going to be ordering some of their 570's and test them in the DR.

As I have said Rhino bullets should be more accessible

Let us know how the Rhino bullets do in your gun

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.
