You're very well equipped for your first African safari! Congratulations on a fine rifle. I am a fan of the 9.3x62. I've taken gemsbok, kudu, giraffe, and local game like elk with mine. It's a wonderful cartridge and your rifle is a very solid choice as well. That PPU ammo is accurate, effective on softer big game and economical to shoot. When loaded with a tougher bullet pushed little faster, your 9.3 is a dangerous game capable cartridge in a handy, affordable package. My 9.3x62 is accompanying me to Mozambique in July, my fifth hunting safari. I hope you are as pleased with your purchase as I have been. Happy hunting!
My plan is to use the PPU for some local Alabama hunting, rifle practice and general fun like blowing up milk jugs.
For Africa I’m thinking TTSX, Aframes or solids(Cape buffalo) though I’m undecided.
