375's and up: How important is blued/wood vs stainless/synthetic to you for Africa?

What is your personal preference for taking a 375+ to Africa?

  • Blued/wood all the way, don't compromise

  • Blued/wood might be preferred but I wouldn't pass up a good deal

  • Indifferent or Stainless/synthetic preferred


Results are only viewable after voting.
I digress Its about wood blued vs S/S.


Someone said they are happy with the Rem SPS, Bugga, they were on the menu under a grand in Australia some 5-6 years back from Cleavers and I didn’t know I needed one at the time. Sadly if I grabbed a synthetic version I’d have been searching for a timber stock and there goes the budget on that budget rifle.

Thankyou.

CBH I happen to have a Rem 700 SPS 375H&H action I will be selling in the near future. Have a barrel of your own desire put on it and a wood stock. Could be the cheapest way to get a 375H&H with a wood stock. If you are interested send me PM.
