Water Buffalo Kill in Argentina

This old wild Water Buffalo bull was taken using a Benelli Lupo rifle in .300 Win Mag., loaded with 180-grain Barnes TTSX bullets. Water Buffalo are about 20 percent bigger than Cape buffalo, but are not typically as dangerous. Still, it pays to be careful and to keep shooting until the buffalo is down for good.

Whould a higher sectional density have helped here, or is this about typical?

They’re pretty tough animals, but it might have!
