Silly things about the 9,3x74R

Have read a number of posts describing incredible stories that happened with a 9,3x74R, like elephants at 5 yards, 300 yards shots and a good amount of other silly things. The mentioned caliber, unpayable companion of mine during 25 years, excellent for European big game when practiced at short distances, is just this: an excellent but limited cartridge that will never ever be even closely called “an all around African cartridge”.
For long and responsible quick death shots is near unusefull, and for large game should just be forbidden unless one goes to African to make experiments with his last DR, and wants the PH do an extra doubling job ( and the great African cartridges were developed many, many years ago, already).
