The rule is you have to have a backup when you do it, but even then, even professional hunters get killed by them on occasion.

They are fast, and if you don't get the heart, they aren't going down. And you generally are supposed to be within 40 meters before shooting, so....

Getting killed by a cape buffalo was not on my bucket list, so I took a pass.

Backup as in a revolver that shoots .454 Casull!
