[QUOTE="mbundy, post: 743095, member: 36557"] I took a 300 Win Mag (Sako AV) and a 375 H&H (Winchester Model 70 Safari) on my plains game hunt. The 300 was shooting 200g Partitions and I used it on everything from impala to wildebeest to kudu. Average shot was probably 100 yards, longest was 240. Performance was exceptional. You will do a lot of walking so I would bring a rifle you don't mind carrying around all day. If you've never shot off of shooting sticks while standing, I strongly recommend you get or make a set and practice. It will make a huge difference. (I did use the 375 (270g Swift A-Frames) for zebra, gemsbok, eland.) [/QUOTE]
