[QUOTE="Foster Hunter, post: 2223334, member: 86379"] I shoot around 3-4 a year most with a 300 WBY. Around 20 total And every time I can tell you I’ve felt undergunned. They’re basically two kinds of Nilgai hunters and those that are going to lose one. I’ve seen them dump over backwards with a 300 win mag. And run 250 yds after being hit in the chest at 150 yds with a .416 Barrett and several lost with .338 Lapuas Shots will most likely be quick and improvised you normally have about 2-5 seconds to see get setup and a shot off. Most important is bullet selection and placement Barnes TSX and TTSX are king for Nilgai. They have some success with Berger Target and most guides frown on Eldx Berger hunting and accubonds. The biggest issue is they don’t bleed and if they get into the brush you will never find them. This is based on spot and stalk hunts not chasing them which you basically just lob lead until you run out. [/QUOTE]
