It all depends on the scenario when hunting and how amped up there are before the shot..




Or if the shot wounds it, and then a follow up on a worked up and angry cape buffalo is required. Then the .45/70 carrier will wish much for a better rifle.

I think I am going to start pushing the .577/450 as a great buffalo rifle. Same class as the .45/70.






I was thinking the 6.5 Creedmoor could be a good useful all around caliber in Africa??
