You should just borrow @Rez Exelon's 458 Lott....oh wait....
I have A BUNCH of RWS 30-06 184 grain ammo and don’t think I still own a gun in that caliber anymore. If you think you’re interested, PM me.
You say that like I don't have a lock on the 375/416 market...
I told the guy on the phone yesterday that I'm normally a small caliber guy, so if the 30 cal stuff works thats all I need!
Just don't be shooting no elephants with those... Unless you just don't have ANY other choice..
Who are you hunting with in Africa? 308/30-06 will work great
Have a great trip

Check and make sure because the rules always change. But most of those countries and especially South Africa will not let you bring ammo unless you have a rifle for that caliber-the last time I was planning a trip down there-2 years ago.
Going with a buddy of mine that has been at least once already, outfitter is called Kirabo Safari I believe
Duiker and steenbock are very small animals. I'd take some 150 grain (or even lighter) for them. For the others, I would lean toward a quality 180 grain bullet. Don't scrimp on ammo. Regulations vary among countries and airlines when it comes to importing firearms and ammo. Be certain to check with the specific airlines you will be flying as well as the countries you will passing through as well as your final destination.
Just making sure the serial was on my customs form. The Customs office were sticklers about seeing your original stamp instead of a copy (which is humorous for anyone with a NFA stamp because they are pretty nondescript). Then I had a copy of my Form 4 and my trust when coming back through, but the Houston customs dudes didn't even ask to see it, they mostly just wanted to see pics of what we hunted after glancing at the one-page customs form.
I might have just had a lucky experience, but overall seemed pretty easy. Having the suppressor while hunting was definitely a bonus.
