Pretty cool, calm & collected!
Good shooting under pressure.
Goes to show the 'Savana Queen' the old 450/400 still has it.

1st one (I watched) buffalo, good shooting. I noticed the 2 rounds ready for reloading and he didn't, even taking his eyes off the buff, perhaps due to something the PH said.

Got this on the second link.

"This page isn't available right now
This may be because of a technical error that we're working to get fixed. Try reloading this page."
reloading the page 3 times did nothing.

Good shooting on both the Lion and Buff. Both hunters cool under pressure. Third one only shows a blurred still and say this is so you can make up your own mind.?????

The nature of a wounded lion charge in the high grass. Out of nowhere.

A PH I hunted with liked the .500 or .550 A-square for when "lion come boiling our of the bush". Flattens the lion, A bit of a difference to a .375 or .416.

Facebook reels unfortunately can be of limited availability.

The elephant charge is very dramatic, ends up at maybe nine ten feet.

I have to see if I can find other links. One shot only but when a double rifle is needed

I see it's censored by Farcebook as a "violent video". One probably needs a Facebook account to Click past the censorship.
