Went on safari last year(Ozandjahe Safaris) for PG and the PH said Winchester comes there periodically and compares and tests various bullets. He supposedly spoke with Scovill(gun writer) and was warned off the Hornady Interbond bullets for PG.

How bigger hornady bonded bullets would do--I have no idea--
But if I were on Safari I would shoot Aframes in bolts and Woodleigh in Doubles.If I we going to cull a hundred animals , yes, absolutely I would look hard at the Hornady(cheaper alternative) but for just a few animals I would use super premium bullets.

If you want to shoot the 450/400 round Superior could load some with Woodleighs.They would absolutely get the job done if you did your part!!

If you want to try the Hornandy's and not go through the hassle of different rounds/regulation-go for it- Marrakai's bullet looks picture perfect to me!! It would be a wonderful real world test and could benefit all big game hunters!!
