Oh is that all...

Having shot one but not the other, the Aussie Buff, as I understand it, can soak up more lead than the African model. I realise all animals are different but that is certainly my understanding. Of course I am prepared to listen to anyone who has nailed both.

Regardless. When you stalk in to 50 or 30 meters from your first Buff, you WILL wish you bought a .375 instead of the .338. Best place to sell a .375 is next to a guy with a .338 about to shoot a Buff. Best place to sell a .416 is next to a guy with a .375.... Best place to sell a 458 is nexxt to a guy with a 416.....you get the idea.

When it gets to trigger pulling time you will want a bigger calibre.
