I agree that the lower power is most important on a rifle used for dangerous game. However, higher magnification could be required if the rifle is to be used for plains game. I had a 2.5-8 Zeiss Conquest on my Ruger Hawkeye African in Warne QD rings for use on plains game, and as a backup in the unlikely event my M77 .458 failed or was damaged. I could have taken plains species easily with either rifle in a pinch. Just make darn sure it's on the low power setting when you are NOT shooting at plains game. I detatch my sling as well when wandering around areas where you have dangerous game. Especially elephant! Keep a couple of solids in the bottom of your magazine for insurance.
