If I went on a dangerous game hunt I wouldn't use a .40cal rifle.
I know Harry Selby(and others) used a .416Rigby for everything so I know it`s not a bad caliber.
And nor should you waver from your convictions!!! My next buffalo hunt will be with a .458 Lott and it will include plains game that I will also apply the Lott for..... I would prefer a .416 for the dual purpose but I want to use my .458 and will only bring one rifle. Buffalo is the primary goal, but I want a kudu and a zebra as well this time around..... I agree with Daryl re: hunting vs PH perspective.... My rifles are chosen from a hunter’s perspective. I believe the .416 is a great stopping rifle, maybe less so than a .500NE, but in either case, shot placement is the key
