The Old Cape Buffalo

[HammerBullets]

Jim and his PH Charles spent half a day spotting and stalking a management bull. They found one group in thick brush, tried to get within range but the group took off. They found another bull and cow in the dense brush, tried to work within shooting distance but discovered a group on the side of the road. Charles gave him confirmation on which bull was the target. At roughly 20 yards Jim sent the 404 Shock Hammer through the left shoulder and into the heart with a 458 WM. The bull walked 25 yards and dropped. They guessed the old Cape Buffalo was roughly 1800lbs. Congratulations Jim on an awesome hunt.

thanks guys, this was the fulfillment of a life long ambition and worked perfectly. this is the only second known Buffalo taken with the 404 grain
Shock Hammer bullet that we know of and worked perfectly and was not recovered and probably still going.
