[QUOTE="LR3, post: 500096, member: 15336"] Dare we say that most would recommend a 375 H&H /378 Wby for plains game and one buffalo or two? If you plan for more buffalo a 416 Rigby/Dakota / 404 Jeffrey would be a good choice. For buffalo elephant combo 450 double or 458 Lott but if you plan to do a lot of buff and ele hunting, then the 500 (Gibbs / jeffrey ) is a good choice , especially if you don't have much in the way of backup or plan to go professional Ph. Remember you have usually a Ph backing you. There are many options available but bullet placement and correct selection of premier expanding rounds or solids is also critical. [/QUOTE]
