Again, congratulations! The 45 caliber with good bullets has a very good reputation on big game all over the world. The biggest thing I've taken with my 45's is 4 elk but I did use cast on all 4 of them. The jacketed bullets you mention all have a great reputation for penetration & staying together, just what you need when the going gets tough. Sable, to me is kind of the holy grail of Africa. Only one's I seen where hanging on the wall in Joburg!!
