In reply to: No, of course not. If you are comfortable shooting a charging Cow elephant with it than take it. ![]() Seriously, common sense comes into play also. If you are in the Kalahari shooting Springbok the chances are slim you will run into a Lion. However if you are in Zambia hunting Oribi and Impala the chances of running into a Buff or Ele or Lion is much greater, in fact probable. A 300 could be a mistake. My original post dealt with my impression that many think that they can bring a light rifle etc to hunt DG with because the PH is there to protect them. That only the PH needs a stopping rifle. I disagree with this theory as I believe that Murphy was an Optimist. One should be prepared to protect oneself in case the PH can't do it. |
