unwounded buffalo cow charge!

I shot an old cow this past August near where the Crocodile and Marico form the Limpopo. It wasn't THIS exciting, but neither was it an easy hunt, about a 30 or 40 yard shot after a long stalk through some thick thorns and steel grass. She had been separated from the herd, so we didn't have that challenge, but just getting to her was a bit of an ordeal.

My 9.3 went "boom," she ran 50 or so yards, crashed, and gave her death sigh.

I agree with Ruark. Mbogo makes me dry in the mouth and my hands sweaty.

Do the laundry staff handle PH's clothes? , the hunter was Norwegian.
If I was the PH I’d throw it in the laundry basket and swear it wasn’t mine !

If you push them long enough, they might charge when they've had enough.

That's normal for any female. Some bite your head off for no known reason but believe me they have a reason even if'n y'all never know what it was.

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
