Heck I can shoot them all, have for years, don't have flinch as yet, but the 458 Lott and up (including the .470) messes with my wilderness experience!

I just load my 470 down to 2020 FPS and all is well, with two quick shots it will turn a buff over and leave all 4 feet sticking straight up most of the time, contrary to some folks thinking, thats good enough for me...

The Cape Buffalo is not a sherman tank, he is flesh and blood and if you put about any big bore bullet in or close to his heart, the game is over, if you gut shoot him them a 600 N.E. is pretty worthless and your in deep do do....

I have seen two seperate ocassion, on the same hunt wherein a Cape buffalo took 9 shots on one and 13 on another, with a 500 N.E. and a 577 N.E., and the best thing about that is I have it all on tape...
