Thanks for the comments fellas, and I also hope that the boys pick him up for me, there is a good chance that they will pending on a day off and the rain holding off as its right out the back.

It was a hard time of the year to hunt on foot as we did but I wouldnt change the experience for anything.

As mentioned I was a little suprised with the Woodleigh weight retention and penetration and found that the bullets expanded very well, but were shedding a lot of weight and rarely passing through the pigs, donkeys or horses. I would be keen to here other peoples experiences here.

I was running a 300gr PP SN load in the 375 ruger doing 2600fps muzzel Velocity, the load was selected as it was extremely accurate keeping 3 shot 3/4 inch groups. I would have expected this velocity to rise slightly as I had a round chambered and safety on the whole trip and there were times I slug my rifle over my shoulder and the barell was extremely hot in those 42 degree days.
