hopdoc,

I'll answer in relation to Water Buffalo - Bulls and Big cows (ie NOT mid sized teenagers).

Firstly, I think the one shot kill principle is BS.

I have animals described above down in one shot from
375H&H, 500/465, 500Nitro, 505Gibbs - and maybe a few others.

However I have also had animals take multiple shots to be put down.

A whole combination of factors is involved, not just calibre and bullet.

One factor is if the animal is ht in the heart, whether the heart is full
or empty when the bullet strikes - it makes a hell of a difference.

As I have said before, a +.500 calibre does make a difference though
over a sub 500 cal.

Just my HO.

500 Nitro
