The good old Famous Keith hard cast bullet;

My favourite bullet for all game in Africa are the CEB # 13 solid and the Raptor. Thees bullets were tested more extensively on African and Australian buffalo, during their R&D phase, than any bullet that I have heard of. ( Peregrine may have to correct me on that .)
I have used the CEB bullet with experienced DG Ph's and they were surprised/impressed with how well they kill buffalo.

After all my build up above, have a look at the Keith Bullet and see the similarities it has the CEB Solid. Wide flat Meplat with " square edges" that is about 65-70% of bullet diameter and a straight Ogive of about 13 deg. ..... similar to the CEB # 13 solid. Was Ecclesiastic right? "There is nothing new under the sun." I am a Keith fan too!

Nothing like rolling a big for caliber bullet slowly down the hill and right through the animal at the other end.... Consider the limited amount of scientific data available to Mr Keith and for the most part his believes and practices are holding water still today. I'm a big fan of the 245 Keith .429 bullet casted out at about 242 grains (nice and hard). Man I shot thousands and thousands of those when I was younger at steel silhouette targets and whitetail deer. Shot them as fast as I could cast them! Good old days....
