Hello all,
Planning my 2nd safari for next Sept 19. Talked a buddy who mainly hunts deer and occasional black bear into going also. He is from VA wants to take his deer rifle - a Remington 7600 Pump Action 30.06 as his only rifle. Trying to convince him into buying or borrowing a bolt action in 30.06 or 300 win mag instead. Not that I am expert my any means, but told him I have never seen or talked to anyone using pump action rifle before.
So throwing it out there for any and all opinions on pump action rifles for plains game. Told my buddy I would talk to safari company about his rifle, but wanted other opinions first.
Personally, I am taking a Weatherby Vanguard in 338 win mag and Ruger #1 in 30.06.
Thanks for any comments in advance.
