Bowhunting Hippo lots of action
It's a good thing that the bowhunter had a PH backing him up or he'd be the one floating in the water!

I never saw a vid of a one shot one kill bow hunt on big animals, did I miss em or am I right in thinking bowhunting is not suited for big animals ?
 
Check this one, great shot placement at quite some distance, one shot bow kill on Hippo...

Bee keeper - I am with you on this one, I wouldn't be showing my mates that first video after the hunt.
Sorry Jerome, not convinced - whilst I admire bow hunters for some really close up stalking, that one seemed to lack penetration IMHO.
Thank you for the videos though, lovely to watch and learn

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
