    Why are Weatherby guns in 375+ calibers not liked on a Safari?

    Well, based on these I think we agree, know your rifle, use a good bullet and it will work. I will go with my Weatherbys to Africa.

    Why are Weatherby guns in 375+ calibers not liked on a Safari?

    Hello from Norway

    Thank you all for the warm welcome and kind words. It takes more than one bad trip to stop me form coming back. It was something about a safari that made me...The smell in the bush, sounds, all of it. Not something you feel or experience in my woods.
