Good answer.

Firstly, I would suggest you get used to buying some premium
bullets if hunting Buffalo, Scrub Bulls and maybe a Samba
otherwise in a tight situation you will have a very angry bull
on your hands. Taipans and Sierra are not what I call bullets
good enough for these game.

As per my previous post where I said BT's weaken a jacket,
you can see I don't like BT's.

Personally, I don't like set triggers so I would get another trigger
put in and get it adjusted by a gun smith to a nice clean let off
to whatever you want - 3lbs ?

What are you like shooting the gun off hand ?
Reason I say this is that in the bush there aren't any nech rests and
sand bags so make sure you do plenty of practice off hand.

If recoil is a problem, get a sorbthane pad put in a shooting jacket
or use a PAST Shoulder Recoil Pad which can be taken on an off
as needed - and worn under a shirt.

If you don't know where to get this type of stuff, PM me and I'll put
you in touch with a dealer who has it in stock.

Hope this helps and ask away any questions - happy to help.
