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.

Here's a photo of Tony receiving that Shaw & Hunter award at the 1970 annual EAPHA Dinner Dance. Tony Dyer, then EAPHA President and Princess (Sunny) von Auersperg presented it. I also attended the event.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ
