If you can afford an outfitter.... you can afford 1 more rifle.
I've never HIRED an outfitter and over the years there have been a FEW times I needed to use a backup, or 1 of my xtra rifles, in a pinch.
One example:
Last year near the end of my deer season I tripped and took a hard fall, I & the RIFLE hit the ground hard.
I simply picked up another rifle and continued hunting. When I checked the first one, sure enuff the scope was off several inches. I know some who would have continued hunting w/o even checking their sighting. ( I know 2 guys that have done that) IF I had done that AT LEAST I would have wounded/made a bad shot or better yet, missed altogether.
Maybe just me but 1 good rifle AINT enuff.
