Sure, you CAN kill a Cape Buffalo with a .243! However, a few years ago, as I put the fourth .416 into a buf at a measured 6 yards, I had a few thoughts about maybe I should have brought a bigger gun - like a 30 mm Vulcan.

Dayrl S - yeah, most people do jump around a bit when shooting anything over .400. Me, I'm taking a .458 Lott to Botswana April 1 (opening day) for buf, and yes, it do kick a bit. My solution - shoot it a lot. After a while the pain goes away and if you haven't developed a good twitch, you should be able to put three rounds in the black at 500 yards off shooting sticks.

'Course it takes a while to get over the pain ...

I hold the gun as tight as possible with it pulled hard into my shoulder and I have a thick shooting jacket.

'Course it takes a while to get over the pain ...

Also, I'm a real he-man, able to bite nails and eat rails ..

Damn, I wish it'd quit hurting, though ...

BTW: the guy who said you don't hear the shot or feel the recoil when shooting DG needs medical help for his delusions.
