I always wondered why Ross Seyfried built a .585 Nyati when his .45 Colt worked? The only reason I can think of is in case of a charge which kinda tells me he wasn't 100% confident in the old 5- shot hammer
He was in the magazine industry and he moved on to the next thing. He had and has absolute confidence in the .45 Colt for Cape buffalo. Keep in mind in '86 when he wrote that piece, he did that hunt without backup. His .45 Colt was a Seville with an oversized six-shot cylinder. He still has it and won't let go of it. He also used a .475 Linebaugh in Australia with great success as he moved on to the next thing.
The only thing that is a 100% charge stopper is a CNS hit, irrespective of what you are shooting.
