RE: Guns and loads for Africa.
If I went to Africa, I'd be solely in pursuit of plains game. No real interest in the dangerous stuff. I'd take my .243 Win. for smaller stuff like Gazelle and Impala, etc., I'd take my .30-06 with some 165 gr. Barnes Triple -X or similar heavily constructed bullet for mid size stuff like Gemsbok, and maybe buy myself a .338 Fed. for the slightly larger stuff like Kudu or Sable. Unfortunately.... It'll probably never happen, unless I win the lottery.
