Just got back from my buffalo hunt with Amanita.

Shot this buffalo at 8:00 AM the second day of the hunt. One 300 grain CEB solid from my .375 did the trick. I would have preferred to take it with my 450/400 double, but the shot was just at a hundred yards, standing face on, in heavy brush. Because of the distance and heavy cover I elected to use the scoped bolt gun.

At any rate, I now have 43 inches of buffalo in the salt. Now I just have to endure the long wait till I get back to have mounted.

Awesome buff and love the “Wife Beater” shirt. Don’t see too many like that on AR.

Great buff! Is that the Browning Boss system on the end of your rifle?

Those CEB's are bad medicine, solids or Raptors. Well done on a great bull, congrats!

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."
