I also own a rifle caliber 11,2x72 built in 1923 from Schüler and with it I once shot a buffalo.

Because you have to set the bullet deep in order to get the cartridge in a normal Mauser 98 magazine , some potential of the cartridge is lost. There can be no comparison with the performance of an cartridge 416 Rigby.

In addition , the 401gr SP Woodleigh bullets are not the best for hunting Big Game.

IMHO this cartridge is obsolete and no longer corresponds to today's standard for hunting Big Game or DG.
