Which solids has everyone had good luck with, straight penetration, looking @ Northfork flat point, afraid they might not fee properly.
Which works on Cape Buffalo best.

I have not had alot of expereince, but last year we were in thick stuff and PH said use solid which I did and it was one and done. Barnes 300 gr solid.

I have used RWS solids out of my 375. Used them on on 5 out of 6 buffalo. Fed reliably and shot to the same POI as the Nosler Partitions. Used the same amount of IMR 4350 by the way.

gi, give Mike a call at North Fork! He will sell you a five bullet pack so you can load five rounds, to check the feeding in your rifle before you buy a box you can't use! As far as quality, if they feed in your rifle, you wont get a better solid that mike's.

gi - i've got some 375 North Fork solids on hand and will mail you some.

For the past 4 years I've been using TB Sledgehammer with great success on buff. I think the current count is 18 and going

Anybody tried the Barns Banded Solids with the flat point on game? Just wondering what the results were.

thanks Chris, I will try them.

I have Tungsten Core Solid by Speer. Haven't used them yet. Going to Africa in 07.
