Quote: When you are about to pull the trigger on a trophy animal that you might have $12 - $20 thousand dollars tied up in, I'll bet on the $3 dollar bullet every time.
With that said, I whole heartily support Hornady. Hornady supports the shooting community. I know that some calibers are money looser but that's made up by others like the .308
Well said.
I would add that simple testing will prove a bullet so the 20-grand critter doesn't have to.
As for Antlers, his shooting killed the animal, and interestingly, how often do we read of multiple shots needed on buffalo.
Indeed, the old Kynoch's were known to be "fragile" compared to today's premiums, the likes of which didn't exist in the so-called "heyday" of hunting in Africa regardless of make.
There's something to be said for a bullet that breaks up a bit, tho the predictability of that break-up is the rub, isn't it...
