.577 Nitro Express vs. a 50lb salt block

Tim Sundles of Buffalo Bore puts his .577 Nitro Express to the test before heading to Botswana for elephant hunting. Loaded with 750-grain, solid brass CEB bullets (the same he’s used on Cape buffalo), this rifle delivers staggering recoil and unmatched stopping power.

In this video, Tim shares his insights on recoil physics, dangerous game hunting style, and demonstrates the raw force of the .577 Nitro on a 50-pound salt block. A must-watch for anyone fascinated by big-bore rifles and African dangerous game hunting.
