I will be hunting in S. Africa and Namiba. I have no intentions of shooting 500yds in africa nor has my PH told me i will need to prepare for that. This rifle is not only for africa. I can not afford to have a rifle specifically used for africa and nothing else. This rifle will be a elk, moose, bear, deer, coyote, woodchuck, whatever i decide to hunt in africa, and target gun. I enjoy shooting, and i enjoy shooting longer distances at the range. I wouldnt be getting a 4-16 or whatever i decide to use the magnification hunting. Thats why i stated i wanted a scope that would have a fairly low beginning range of magnification. when i hunt i always have my scope on the lowest power until i get in a position where i am able to adjust.
