[QUOTE="Gcan, post: 2223232, member: 102867"] Yes they are extremely tough animals. A 300wm is enough for any antelope or deer that walks. I’m guessing your guide knows that Nilgai are usually in constant motion. Unless you are hunting on a game farm, Shots can be far and fast. This makes less than perfect shots the rule with animals like Nilgai and Eland. In a perfect world 300wm is more than enough. Having said that, Id be shooting a 300 or 338 RUM or equivalent. At 300-500 yards both make sufficient hydrostatic shock and cause enough tissue damage to put your animal down with a marginal shot. [/QUOTE]
