[QUOTE="Irish Neil, post: 1567905, member: 95048"] Learn from my mistake. I decided not to bring my 6.5 Swedish as i was advised the cal was too light for Africa( despite hundreds of European elk being shot with this calibre). I hired a local rifle in 30-06 . I could not get used to it and it shook my confidence. So do bring your 270 which will knock everthing you meet but err on the side of caution for the eland and as previously suggested get you PH to organise a heavier rifle for the eland. Make sure you get a bit of practice with it first! Don't stint on the ammo. [/QUOTE]
