Well,the gun's a Weatherby Vanguard in 300 Weatherby. Ought to do the trick if I just do mine. Ammo is Weatherby factory 180-gr Spitzer (probably Norma?). PH says 100-yard shot. I'mnot sure, but I think the 300 ought to have enough wham out to at least that distance, and mayhaps another 500 yards, or so.


-The one I shot last in Zim --I was using a HS rifle chambered in 300 Ultra--shot 200 gr A-Frames..I went with them as I knew I would shoot other game, never know what you might run into..and figured the 200 Gr would be a bit slower and deliver a little more punch when hit..used it on hippo, croc, zebra, eland, hyena and impala..one shot on all...if I went for another I would use either that or a cooper I have in 30-06..have never used an 06 in my life...so I bought one..think for leopard it would be "the cats meow"...sorry couldnt resist..
