Hi Mick,

Great practice hunting pigs with the .458.

And good fun even if not "practice".

Seeing the bracelets, I have to ask, have you taken an ele with the .458?

If so, tell us about it. If not, no problem, they are good little souveneirs and curios.

Irrespective of that, I like those ele tail hair bracelets of yours, I have some, but mine are no where near as good, being made way too short and narrow.

Interesting even though a lot of people knock the standard .458 Win as not having enough grunt, a lot of PH's, including good ones, use it still. No problem if the cases are loaded to proper ballistics.

Its good to see your hunts, living up in the NT. Thanks for posting the photos and short story.
