Hi guys,

I use a 460 WBY MAG for all my back-ups with clients and big game hunting.This is probably the most and biggest wild cat of all the big bores???
I don't think that it makes any differance to a hunters skills or changes his skill in using one of these type of calibers.It does'nt say that if you own one of these you can only shoot 300m and not 50m.Personally I think anybody who shoots longer than 200m on any animal is taking chances and on bigger it is really silly and rather stupid to do something like that.I can handle my 460 as any other person can handle a 375 and I still try and get in as close as possible.And I promise you that if there is a charging elephant or a buffalo in front of me there is very little that i'll swop for my 460.There is a place for any calibre in hunting but we don't have place for any hunter.Very little has to do with the rifle or caliber but the most important is the hunter and unfortunatly there is people that use these wild cats wrong and in the process give the rifles and calibers wrong names.
