"Performance was so good on feral hogs that Boddington had no trouble using the rifle for buffalo."???? I'm shot a lot of hogs in my life and one buffalo and I don't see any connection between the two AT ALL. Except that they are both animals. I'd think that a .405 is a bit light for a 2,500 pound buffalo... but maybe not. The statement just gets the wheels to turning. Magnificent animal... and I am referring to the buffalo this time.
