No doubt which combination i would choose.

The .375 H&H and the .470 double. They closely mirror my battery, still to be tested in action together, of a .375 and a .450.

They also allow overlap on the upper end. If you see that magical 100 pounder and all you have is a mere .375, no worries .

The all time classic battery would have been to include a 6.5 or a 7 mm so if you add the 7mm Rem Mag you would have everything. Except no doubt one rifle would remain in camp.

But Dik Dik with a .375 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


PS I am green with envy. A 21 day safari ranging from Dik DIk to Elephant. Good luck.
