You do realise the actual hunt was never meant to PROVE anything. It is only some members of this board who think that! My original post was to get some discussion going and see what people think. No recommendation on whether it was a good idea, whether it was "adequate", or whether it would not kill OK

It was just a guy with a new rifle who wanted to try hunting water buffalo with it. The PH agreed, afterall there would be a PH right beside him with a .416 Rigby as well. The .416 Rigby never came to play BTW.
