.470 Vs. Banteng--Ouch!
#44885 - 26/12/05 12:04 PM

Copied another segment of "Get Wild" with Cindy Garrison where she was hunting Banteng.
I have no idea what a mature Banteng weighs but when she put a .470 on the point of its shoulder, it's entire body went vertical and came back down on all fours and just stood in place looking like it was in total shock.
Good thing it did, because this is one of the times her DG did not fire the other barrel. She opened the gun, removed the round, looked at the round, reloaded the same round and this time it fired.
Understand this has happened on other occasions - not sure if it is operator or mechanical error but it needs to be fixed.

Found this old thread.

Does anyone know if this footage is on the net somewhere ... or have a copy of this footage? Thanks.

Not the banteng hunt mentioned, but a buffalo hunt:

This shows her shooting another buffalo, and also shows her aiming at the banteng, but not the kill shot:

It looks as though that young lady can certainly handle herself well.
