Your 3 favorite hunting cartridges of all time

The 375 WBy thread got me thinking of my favorite hunting cartridges off all time.

Here are mine:

22 LR
9.3x62 (followed close my a 375 wby--less bark with the 9.3)
450/400 3" (really it was the gun it was in--but was a sweet shooting as they come)

NF CPS on buff 9.3x62

Has anyone specifically used a North Fork Cup point solid on a Cape buffalo?

With the 9.3x62 legal in Zim I am thinking of the best bullet to optimize that cartridge and based on previous reports I have heard of it’s good performance

For those who have used the 9.3x62 on buff what bullet do you recommend?

Polished Gemsbok and Eland horns

Came across these polished loose horns in a gun shop this week. Made some bases up and 'mounted' them. Pity the horns weren't matched pairs, but I think they came up OK.

Most importantly why you made your choice. And any fun stories related to it.

And if im missing anything feel free to add on. Just kind of a fun thought exercise.
