I don't much like the .243 as I said for the boars and donkeys in the Territory I would suggest the 25's as a min, with the 25-06 as a better calibre over the Roberts, with 120gr bullets.

Now if I were to under take a African hunt, because of limited funds my choice of rifle would be my .416 Rigby (if it ever gets bloody finished ) and my 6.5x55 shooting 140 gr Woodleighs or X's. I've asked this question before on AR, but for the benifit of the members here, what do you think of the 6.5's for plains game.
