Carry as much as you can. You may need it and there will not be a gunshop behind every bush over there. If you do manage to find ammo in your caliber, it will be VERY expensive, and won't shoot as well in your rifle as your own ammo.
Get your rifles pre cleared. Air 2000 has done it for me on each of 3 trips to RSA. I made the mistake of putting my ammo in the guncase with the rifle on my first trip, and it created a hell of a dust up with the SAPS people when I arrived. Had it not been for Air 2000 I could have easily had my rifle and ammo comfiscated and done jail time.
Bottom line is regulations vary from country to country, sometimes day to day, and you need to be up to speed on the requirements in your particular location AT THE TIME YOU WILL BE THERE.
DO NOT pack your ammo in your guncase if you are going to RSA. BTDT, and it was not a pleasant experience. Just sayin...
