No idea of what the big six entails, but there are people out hunting big game in Africa with muzzleloaders. What their loads and projectiles are, I have no idea. Doc White and some others go hunting in Africa and have posted information on their web sites about the adventures as well.

Jim Shockey has taken a lot of african game with an inline and nolser partitions for years. So it can be done, maybetake a boo at his site and see what he has to say about MLs in africa. Hunting in africa their is no shortage of ample firepower for back up
! I know I certainly wouldn't want a single shot, especially on my first expedition

just a side note. if you plan to hunt africa i believe it is hard to get the powder into the countries over there. i thought i herd that you have to set up something with your PH-(profesional hunter) to have the powder there already.
