mindcrime, you gotta be kidding! Wanna sell your wife, kids, favorite firearm?? Can't get bull buff and roan to load.
Lion- 23 yards, full charge. Special 350 gr. Northern Precision BT type of bullet.
Elephant- full charge-shot at 12 yards!!!!!!!!!!! 400 gr. Horn. Solid.
Bull buff- 400 gr. Horn (Pre DGX), 34 yards.

Cow buff- 80 yards, frontal chest, Horn. 400 gr. DGX
Roan-120 yards, 350 gr. Alaska Bullet Works Bonded.
ALL of these animals were one shot kills, except elephant-just missed the brain(was a little excited). Broke hip going away, then a finisher.

You should have known by the BIG SMILEY, that I was just razzing ya!!! I don't blaim you; take that many Dangerous Game animals with a firearm, there IS a bond there. SOOOOO, I have no kids, and I can't part with my Ruger RSM in .416 Rigby, but I "might" consider selling the wife. .....

I was looking up ".416 Taylor Encore" on the Net, and saw where you harvested a doe with that monster.

Your "Trophy Room" has to be awesome.

Just got a crop damage doe last night with the .416 and a 350X at 115 yards. She didn't go far.
I have a few animals in my "zoo"- 78 last count.

Do you have any custom Remington XP-100s, and if so, what are your biggest calibers???
