Plains99 - you posted at the same time as me. Very good post. I have heard of a lot of buffalo lasting for a good long time with a lung damaged.

Unfortunately nowadays the legal framework makes all this academic in most African countries.

Today it is sport hunting and people follow their own interests.

One client may choose to be independent and use a large big bore so as to handle any situation if things go well enough.

Another may wish to 'relive' a bygone age and hunt an elephant with black powder, as did Selous and co.

Yet another might want to try his skill with a bow and take a buffalo with a powerful draw.

Some of these ventures would no doubt result in the client being killed if they weren't backed up. Modern authorities understand this isn't good for future "sales" and reputations in their countries. I personally think that is a pity, I think "stunts" should be accompanied by an increase in the risk and danger. If that was the case I wouldn't call it a stunt anymore.

I don't see this is a need to argue. Individuals can follow their own paths and take responsibility for their actions. Very similar to the hunting of a water buffalo with a 6.5x54mm M-S which my friend is proposing. I have no doubt that 95% of the time it will be fine as he knows the game, the shot and is able to place the shot as well. For the 5% he will have to take responsibility if something else happens. Me too, as I will be there as well.

Have fun!
