    Which South African animals to target

    Bolt or a #1

    You actually just said you would like to get a .458 - I assumed that you would be wanting to hunt with it, and automatically was thinking Dangerous game... If that's the case - run this by your PH / outfitter. Bet he'll answer your question ...

    Got my first elk hunt this year - Help me pick a cartridge

    You have a 30-06 in the list, why wouldn't you just upgrade that rifle to premium 165 gr. bullets or even better 180's, and that would be ideal for 90% of the situations you will encounter
