For the first trip, the one that you shoot the best. Most of us don't go to Africa every year, so when we go it is something special. A strange place, animals that you've never hunted before, a PH at your side and trackers watching over your shoulder. It all adds up to a new unsettling experience, having "old Faithful" in your hands makes that first shot a lot easier.
The second time you'll use a 375 H&H because it's what old time Africa hunters like you always use.
The third time you will use a big double rifle because that's what the PH's use.
The fourth time you'll take the rifle that you shoot the best.
Terry you must be a prophet.
I am only on the third trip, take a big double stage. But will my .22 Magnum do for the fourth stage ......
