It is quite interesting that Karamojo Bell shot over a thousand buffalo with .256, 7mm and .303 and said he NEVER had a close call.

To him, buffalo was a straightforward animal do hunt, no fuss about it. A 45-70 would be considered a cannon compared.

Having gun hunted cape buffalo and bowhunted water buffalo (very much bigger) several times in the worst situations in thick jungle, I canīt agree more. I would hunt a buffalo with a 44mag revolver and hard casta bullets anyday. I doubt I would ever loose one if I wouldnīt rush things and make stupid shots.


However, I was in Chewore with Roger Whittall about 10 years ago with a guy (a very nice fellow) who had spent a fortune on an old english double. Then he spent another 6K to have it renewed, and then he shot a buffalo in the gut.

He spent 2 days on the tracks of the bull and the lion following it...
