Just based on the viable possibilities and circumstances of all this actually happening.... one has no other option but to categorically state that the cow won here.

Although... Rambo would have done it in one shot, with a ricochet off a sun tanning crocodile.

It's nice to see that even though the cow was hit 3 times.... it is still alive somewhere near Kakguli

Don't want to get into the whole debate about whether Saffex shot the cow or not, but even if he did shoot it from some distance, I don't think "Rambo" is a particulalrly apt nickname in that case.

I don't remember John Rambo using a rifle much in any of the movies or being known as any kind of crack shot. Now, if Saffex had stalked the cow, climed up on a nearby rock or tree and dropped down on the cow, killing it with a wooden spear that he'd fashioned himself from a branch and then hacked off one of it's limbs and carried it back to the rest of the platoon . . . then "Rambo" might be an appropriate name.

"First Blood" wasn't a bad action movie . . . decent but not great . . . but as with most sequels, they just got progressively worse. "Rambo 2" was crap, "Rambo 3" was downright pathetic while "Last Blood" was honestly one of the worst movies I've ever sat through.

Of course they are (sic) but here:
‘ Now, if Saffex had stalked the cow, climed up on a nearby rock or tree and dropped down on the cow, killing it with a wooden spear’
Notice I don’t use sic after climed(sic)….because your blooper was inside quotations. So the only thing that comes to your pea brain is a spear. When the movie advertising was replete with him with machine guns.
What a pompous fool you are.  But just in case you aren’t noticing the egg dripping off your chin read this from Chat:
‘ Yes, John Rambo, the iconic character portrayed by Sylvester Stallone in the Rambo series, is depicted as a highly skilled marksman. His character is a former Green Beret with extensive training in firearms, stealth, and guerrilla tactics. Throughout the films, Rambo demonstrates exceptional accuracy with a variety of weapons, including rifles, bows, and even improvised weapons.

Some examples of his precision include:

  • In First Blood (1982), he expertly uses a hunting bow and firearms to disable opponents without necessarily killing them.
  • In Rambo: First Blood Part II (1985), he uses explosive arrows with pinpoint accuracy to take down enemy soldiers and equipment.
  • In later films like Rambo (2008), his proficiency with mounted machine guns and sniper rifles further showcases his legendary skill.

Rambo's portrayal as a "crack shot" aligns with his character's background as a highly trained and experienced combat veteran.’

Wehe . . . the egg-faced old fool knows about as much about the difference between a rifle and a machine gun as he knows about the difference between a tighthead and a loosehead.

“ That cow was miles away“ So 1 mile is 1609 m. And miles means more than 2. So your shot was taken more than 2 kilometres away. To take that shot accurately, you need at-least a 338 Cal. or a 50 cal rifle. You also need a bigger than 6-24x72 Hensoldt Tactical Long Distance Scope. Preferably with a multicoated 72mm objective lens, our Spotting Scopes offer a bright, wide field of view (131-66ft/1000yards) and are fogproof, ensuring reliable performance in all weather conditions. It is possible if you had the right shooting equipment and also taking in consideration the weather conditions.

Maybe When your African Rambo comes back from visiting South Africa, he can bring you a African Grey parrot with? This might sound silly, but never give up hope becs…. Any case when I hear what you have to go thru, most of us has absolutely nothing to complain about. I would like to commend you on your mental strength, it’s admirable:)

That is good becs :) imagine having a Lion or a Cheetah…. If you had a big yard and the Big Cat can move freely inside and outside? Didn’t you have a African Serval? And the Cat thought you were his girlfriend? What about a Bengal Cat? They beautiful and very loyal companions. I would love one. Or maybe a Maine Coon?
