Re: Is a 6.5x54mm adequate for Water Buffalo?

In reply to:
I disagree. I think, that in the hands of good shooter, it would be adequate.
Mick,
Not sure what you're disagreeing with.
To answer the original question which was..
Is a 6.5x54mm adequate for water buffalo?
No one in their right mind would recommend the 6.5 x 54 as being "fully up to the task" for asian buffalo hunting in all conditions.
Sure it can kill buffalo and so can plenty of other small cartridges.
If by "adequate" you mean "capable of", well yeah it is.
On the other hand if by "adequate" you mean that it is "fully sufficient", sorry but I don't think so.
