[QUOTE="Jerry M, post: 1201760, member: 6330"] For shooting the animals mentioned I would choose the .300 Magnum. It will hit harder then the 6.5x55. I shot Baboon, Blue Wildebeest, Diker, Kudu, Gemsbok, Springbok, Warthogs, and a Zebra with a .30-06 Springfield. BUT all at close range. Wildebeest, Kudu are big and Gemsbok notorious tough to kill and require a bigger bullet than 6.5x55, in my opinion. Especially if you are shooting at long range. Good luck Jerry [/QUOTE]
