Nyati50, I love doubles but there is a good bit in a Boddington book where he is chatting with a famous PH who reckons you will have to give up 60% of your shots on Buff if you haven´t a scope. I believe this is an under estimate. I have nothing like the experience of most of the chaps here and I don´t know how old you are or the state of your eyesight or your budget but IMO a double with a QD scope is important, (I know the purists will cry no). Also I have been trying to get a Hippo on land for 3 years and have failed but if you want to whack one in the water, accuracy is everything, on land a .500 is perfect. By the sound of your battery you have all that is needed but you want a big bore double so get a .500 but KNOW you will have to give up some shots, just MHO, best, Mike
