Thanks again for all the info, I have checked on my box of 300 grain woodleighs and it recomends 2500 fps as maximum impact velocity. I am pretty sure if I do my part the 300 grain woodleigh would do its, but I am wondering about impala, Kudu, Zebra and Oryx, and what ranges would I be expected to be shooting at on average? I am asking because I like the idear of only taking one load with me to Africa, and if those other smaller animals are shot out past 200 meters pretty often then I'd rather have a bullet with a better BC and more accuracy than the 300 grain woodleighs. Would a good 250 grain bullet like a woodleigh protected point get the job done on an Eland?

Cheers

Steve
