Open sighted .450/400 for a 1 gun Safari?

So I took my Heym 89b 450/400 to the range today to do some load development. Hornady DGX 400 grain bullets over 90 grains of VV N565 seems ro work well and gave about 15mm L and R pairs at 30 metres. The two DGS bullets I fired seemed to be no different to the DGX.
what do our fundis think of this load?
But yes, you were all correct, I need a 1moa Trijicon and I have found one in Johannesburg. The 3.25 moa is great for buffalo inside 75 metres, but for PG I will need more definition.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
