I voted 270WIN, for my wife.
Reason being it is the largest caliber she can shoot well...and hitting the target is the whole point.
If I got a 30-06 and set it up for her it would be too heavy to carry all day.
She understands her own limitations and the limits of the caliber, and stays within them.
If she NEEDS a bigger caliber, I'm right next to her and will had over my 300WM or 375H&H, and for one shot she isn't going to flinch.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Remember I will be at the ISE show in Denver Colorado for 8-12 January, and after the show I will be available for meetings anywhere in the USA I will traveling around to meet with old and new clients, let me know and we will set up a meeting!
