My first experience with hardcast handgun bullets on medium game left me disappointed. I double-lunged a pronghorn with a .512 caliber 465gr. WFN bullet and had to shoot it three more times.

The 50’s as they are termed, are two different animals of the same family. The original Fifty of modern times the 50BMG, uses bullets of .510 diameter.  This is where some of the confusion begins.

If inches of bone or antler is what you need to feel successful in your hunting, then perhaps hunting isn’t for you. If shooting an animal from long range and calling it “hunting” is what you need, then perhaps you should try something else… maybe try actually HUNTING.

One thing is for sure, long-range shooting is not required for Nilgai, and a good bullet placed properly will still kill even the hardiest of animals.

To me and many others, the .41 is no longer the “Middle Magnum” or “Forgotten .41”. It is and has always been the All-Purpose .41. 

My recent trip to Sweden for hunting allowed my wife and I to use a lot of outdoor gear and clothing.

The adjustable component trigger assembly JP pioneered years ago was the benchmark of aftermarket triggers available for the MSR.

I never realized how important top-quality leather gear or holsters were until I needed to wear a gun around all day long, riding horses, doing chores, hunting wearing a pack, sitting in a vehicle, crawling through brush, and competing while performing rough and tumble activities.
