But Why?

Because I said that a 243, 7mm and 375 covers all my needs?

A few outfitter sites reccomend 9.3x62 and .375 H&H for
Black Wildebeest
Eland
Kudu
Roan
Sable
Zebra

Short of these big species, a 30-06, 7x64 and .270 will suffice. (I am however leaning toward one of 7x64 or 30-06)
Many outfitters say that the absolute minimum for an eland is .338 Win Mag

Since I am not sure if I will be hunting these species, Instead of a .375 then, I could get a 12GA to go birding with.

For shorter distances (tyically less than 100m in bushveld)on small antelope a .223, .243 and .260 would all work well.

How is this a stupid summation?
