Showcase your Dangerous Game hunting cartridges

Short and beefy, it's hard to imagine that much energy is packed into such a compact package.

Now wait just a minute; there's no need to get personal!

It always depends on what you consider dangerous game. It is not always the biggest.

I just used several of these 500 Nitros & 416 Rigbys to take 14 animals in Mozambique. All performed perfectly. For me, using ammo that I reloaded to work best in my rifles for the game I am hunting is very very rewarding. Softs are Swift A-Frames, 416 Solids are Barnes Monolithic Solids and 500 NE solids are Woodleigh Hydros. All were reloaded with powders that are not affected by ambient temperature to factory recommended velocities (verified over a chronograph). Sometimes I think I like reloading and shooting as much or more than hunting.
