Re: Where does the 7x57 Mauser stand as a sambar cartridge?

Look at the 'stats'- 29 shots, 27 animals.
Jack's (his own admission) average # of rounds per Canadian (B.C. Al.) moose (which are big babies) was 3.8 rounds per, using his favourite Winchester M70 .270 with (probably) 130gr. ST's.
Seems Elinor was a MUCH better shot than he was.
Just saying, he own admission puts him in the "average wealthy guided hunter" category. His wife - well above normal. That, of course is merely my opinion.
A Buddy's wife needs only 1 100gr.SP .243 for her moose each year. She uses 85gr. TSX for deer - one per.
