As to armament, we proceeded on my firm opinion that you can’t be overgunned when you’re hunting lions and buffaloes. The Silvertip, it seems to me, expands much too quickly on dangerous big game. We got our share of chances at big game, collecting some, muffing some. When you know you’ve caused a mortal wound, take your time, for your game will lie down, stiffen and die. Our month was soon up but we had a respectable score: Four lions, a lioness, eight buffaloes, and lesser game.
