I used a Winchester Mod 70 338 WM and 210 grain NP on my trip. It was a rifle I already had. I'm not big on buying rifles for a hunt, what I have needs to work. I shot a
Zebra
Blue Wildebeast
2 Kudu
Gemsbock
Blesbock
Impala
Warthog
I probably could have got by with a 30-06 but I like the 338 and have used one a lot, recoil was no issue whatsoever.
