You've probably already read this.....

One long retired gunwriter (he was/is a millionaire anyway) took one to the dark continent way back when there was only one factory load and two component bullets, hornady & remington. Seems like I remember the tiny hare to jackal sized antelopes with the scant, barely discernible horns were the goal(s) but that the .17 remington, even with the remington factory load was adequate for as big as tommies/impalas.

Way off topic, but are there valid reasons why any and all previous gun magazine articles are not available online for a nominal fee ? I know I would pay $15 to $20 for an ebook compilation of all of bob milek's articles. I cannot be alone in this. Seems like a viable market. Why are the publishers not scanning & uploading for purchase ?
