    Your ideal 3 gun & 3 cartridge trio to hunt all things Africa.

    450Rigby 375 H&H 300 H&H 450Rigby for DG, especially elephant, buff and Hippo. Unrivaled penetration. Solids can be used for the Tiny 10. 375 H&H can obviously be used for both, PG and DG, but adds a bit if range to your arsenal. Whereas I consider the 450 a stopper and am not using it for...
