    Some time ago I hunted wild bulls in tiger country that were tagged as possibly spreading TB. Tight country with the odd 50-75m window for a shot. My goodness I never felt undergunned with a pump loaded with roll your own slugs

    With roughly three times the energy of a .44 mag, I can imagine. Can you recall which slug it was that you used?

    More than likely it was the Brenneke slug.
