The velocity is actually in a good range for cast bullets.

Same weight for caliber and same velocity. Same application. Substitute a same-weight WFN/LFN for the Keith bullet, it doesn't matter. There is no magic that makes the 10mm a better dangerous game load. IMHO, neither qualify. If the 10mm is good for Cape buffalo then why do we even need .44's, .45's, .475's and .500's? All this does is lend credibility to the nut jobs like Dobbs who think the 10mm is the be-all, end-all of handgun performance. I would use the .44Mag but it wouldn't be my first choice either. The 10mm is like sending a toddler to do a man's job.
