Re: Killing vs. Stopping.

I can completely agree with that, but I don't know what experience the various hunters who have posted here have with hunting big and dangerous game.

I have my experience with this hunt, and cartridges caliber 9,3mm or 375, and to some extent also 416, have little place in this discussion about stopping and killing when something goes wrong.

I never meet a PH who used anything smaller than 458 Winchester Magnum or 458 lott for backup when hunting elephants. Some were very enthusiastic about the cartridge 505 Gibbs, and in many cases it is the price of all these weapons that unfortunately prevents some PH from purchasing a rifle in caliber 50.
