Like I said a gun for her(never met her don't even know if she hunts!). But, being the wife of a Zm PH?? That would undoubtedly also be used as a loaner rifle. Now boys, my thinking is this..... If he has to loan a rifle, I would be most likely to a person that:
1. Does not own a rifle and therefore is recoil shy.
2. Luggage FU by the airlines and he/she must make do.
3. Will be a real truck gun.
4. Last ele hunt we did he did not reload, but wanted to start.
5. I know for a fact he likes the 30-06. They used one while I was there. Get this, Military FMJ on crocs.
6.hell, he may sell it for all I know.
I was figuring on bringing dies and bullets in checked luggage. Doesn't go against my 5 kilo.
And if you can't handle a '06 or 270 maybe you shouldn't be hunting in Africa?
I have never,never ever seen a 308 bolt gun in Zim. Yes in Namibia. Maybe modern military calibers are illegal?
