| Not sure if we get much in the way of South African ammo in the uk. I have just looked at the impala website. I would guess effect on a roe buck would be pretty similar to a springbok - they are about he same size. |

| Non toxic bullets are being used in the UK. Many conservation agencies are beginning to insist on them, especially if carcasses will be left on the mountains to feed re-introduced sea eagles. They do seem to get somewhat mixed reviews depending on who you talk to. But then the same can be said of just about anything shooting related - or for that matter anything mechanical related. |

| Impala is very accurate. Most of the bucks after the shot go for 30-100m before they drop down. The blood trail size is OK but sometimes it begins after 20+m. |
