Having said all that, one of my PH's in Zim in 2008 had the exact rifle in camp for his backup if the .458 Win actually broke as the stock was in very poor condition...

I have seen a PH hunting with a rifle that would systematically jam on the second round, one with a broken magazine spring, defective bolt stop and defective safety, one with a crushed magazine box so the rounds would not feed, and a few other niceties along these lines.

The equation PH = Good Rifle returns a False more often than it's supposed to!
