What would you guys suggest for harvesting a nilgai? I normally deer hunt with a .270, and don't currently have a larger caliber than it.

Blast from the past. I'm hitting the King Ranch soon for a big blue and trying to decide which horse to bring out of the stable. My .338 Christensen MPR and 300 Wby Lazermark haven't ever drawn blood. I'd like to change that but I'm nervous to put a scratch on the Wby and think the .338 may be overkill (maybe not). I've got a Vanguard .300 Wby I used in Mexico that'll work, then there's the 7mm-08, .308, and 30-06. I'm even considering my 6.5-284 or 6.5-300.
What say the 2021 OB crowd?

The 6.5-300 is an interesting round to me. That thing has to be SCORCHIN

I'm using a .300 RUM and .416 Rigby on my hunts this year. Because I have them, and because I like big guns and I cannot lie.
