Nothing wrong with analyzing incidences rationally, how do we ever learn to improve or prevent/ minimise dangerous situations arising again. Those hunters were within in inches of losing their lives or being seriously injured. Both hunters managed to get out of the situation but it did highlight how doubles have limitations despite what some wish to believe and bolt guns need to work slick and fast to best use their mag capacity.
Yet the double rifle worked in the hands of the hatted PH. The bolt action client initially shot the buffalo before the video starts. Ends up with an empty bolt action. The PH's DR finishes the buffalo.
So on that basis and evidence the bolt action has more limitations.
Neither of the shooters knew their weapons very well. Both were looking at their guns to reload. The bolt action seemed to fill his mag instead of getting 2 rounds in and shooting. The double shooter kept looking at his gun and struggled to get 2 shells in. Yes, the pukka factory would not help but both did very well to remain as calm as they appeared to be IMHO.
