Pedro beat me to it,,,,,,,,,,,, I was musing about trying the .375 H+H Magnum on a crow or hare.
The ol crow lights up well when you hittem with 4,000 fps of 22/250 HPs
I do not fear death itself... Only its inopportune timing! I've come to realize that,,,,, the two most loving, loyal, and trustworthy females in my entire life were both canines.
A roo-shooter mate of mine was grading some property roads for us a few years back. Greg used to bring his .416 Taylor with him, in case he saw anything while grading.
I made the mistake of letting him talk me into shooting it one day; using one of his so-called 'Pussy' loads. Yeeaahhhh...freaking thing kicked like a mule, and the scope tried to ram my sunglasses into my head. However, the pigeon I was aiming at; vaporised...
At least there was little chance any pigs/dogs/cats/rabbits were going to get away, if he encountered them...
