450 or 500 BPE in Africa?
Just wondering if anyone has hunted dangerous game or otherwise in Africa with the 450 or 500 BPE's? I realize they're way behind the NE rounds--just curious what you hunted and how the cartridges performed. Thanks!

Nobody? From all the 45-70 hubub I figured SOMEONE on here had used one of these....the 500 has a bit more stomp to it than the 45-70....hmmm
