Never had any real DG charges - one scrub bull who came after taking a couple of shots with a lightish cal (.308) - a single shot between the eyes at around 8m put paid to that pretty quickly.

The most memorable charge I have had was actually a pig (Boar of around 80kg) - came on like a freight train through the long grass, had real intent and was very diificult to hit on the way in given the lack of visibility - cleaned him up with a couple of shots at very close range(about 2m,)

I tend to use the 375 for alot of hunting nowadays - mainly for fun not for stopping specifically although it has proven emphatic on everything shot with it so far (incl one Buff (asiatic) with a single shot to the shoulder with a 300gr pill)
