[QUOTE="msilbernagel, post: 2124856, member: 117619"] If you might find yourself hunting dangerous game, and I don't know the legal definition of dangerous there but assume it to be things with claws and teeth that might fight back.. then it is probably still true that .375 is the minimum legal caliber. A couple of posters have listed nice choices in 375. You can find a CRF Winchester M70 on Gun Broker right now in 375 H&H Magnum, FYI. Suppose you could have a smith alter the barrel length to suit your needs. CRF has been favored by some for dangerous game due to perceived reliability; who needs a jam once tigger is ticked off? Here's an article that might be helpful too. [URL]https://huntinginafricasafaris.com/hunting-south-africa/five-best-calibers-for-hunting-africa/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
