Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Africa Serious question for plains game, 338 Fed, 338/06, and 9.3s

65BR,
I would probably go with the 9.3... with a lighter bullet. But you are right in the ranges. I know here by me, shots are hardly ever over 200 m. But the chances are that a real monster steps out , and you will have to take that chance in bagging him. But, try taking something that you are comfortable with , and maybe shoots a little bit flatter. Atleast you will take the guess work out of your shots.
...and practise , practise , practise
