The brindled gnu is in Rowland Ward's Records of Big Game. He was taken in the Selous in Tanzania in 1972. I was told to look for a bull whose horns were wider than his ears, and as you can see, this one's are.

I was holding my battered .300 H&H Model 70 with its 26" barrel to illustrate the width of the horns of this impala.

That waterbuck, Kenya 1971, was as tough an animal as I have ever encountered. The first shot from the .300 H&H put him down, but it took three more shots from point blank range to put a stop to his suffering.

The gerenuk was one of the most difficult trophies to obtain, because I constantly overestimated the range and shot over them. Trying to make a quick distance estimate where the target varies from Thompson's to Grant's to Peters' gazelles creates problems, also. I would probably have been better off shooting with a .243 Winchester or even a .220 Swift, instead of the 180 grain Silvertips in the .300 H&H.
