Plains Game Rifle Selection

Hence, my decision for a straight PG hunt is the .375 Holland and for a combination hunt of buffalo and something like Roan or Sable, the .416 Rigby. I believe this selection inures to the benefit of the quarry, covers a multitude of potential sins and, as far as the buffalo goes, allows my Mother a better night's sleep.

Your Rifle selection of 375 H & H and the 416 Rigby will have you well covered...:)
 
30-06 is a great combo with your 375 H&H. 180gr for bushveld and 165gr for open plains. If you decide on a magnum then look a a 30H&H Mag as well. I love mine - extremely accurate, lower pressures and less recoil than 300 Win Mag.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
