John:
The reason alot of PH's don't like the magnums is that todays premium bullets zip right through light skinned and boned animals and the majority of the energy is spent off in space instead of in the animal, shutting down the nervus system and stopping the animal in its tracks. The animal that I would least want to track when wounded is mister spots!!!! leopard hunting is a relativly short range hunt, usually under 100 yards. I have a short, very accurate 308 Win. Sako that will typically shoot 1/2-3/4" groups at 100 yards with 165 Hornady's that I'll be using, but I think I will switch to Sierra's as they have a lighter jacket that will open sooner.
