When I was in Africa hunting plains game, I didn't find the animals any harder to kill than their US equivalents.
Others with more experience will chime in, but the Lapua 139 SCENAR is accurate and kills in my 6.5 Creed, and I'd have no problem taking same to African on a plains game hunt.
Probably millions of head of Africa game have been killed with the 6.5 x 55, the ballistic twin of the Creedmoor.
