I plan to take .300 H&H and .400 H&H for the mixed bag safari, although I'm not quite sure I need the "light rifle" with .400, as I should be able to take care of everything up to and including buffalo with a .400. If you look at the recommendations of PH:s, one should be well equipped with either a .30-06 or .300 for plains game. If I plan to take only one buffalo, I may not be willing to punish myself with heavy rifle if it's not necessary and therefore I may consider the pain and hassle of a two rifle safari.
Any thoughts about this. And don't worry, I plan to use 200 gr. bullets from Swift or Woodleigh if I use a .300 H&H.
