Thoughts on 7BC?

Just finished putting together a demo rifle for a client chambered in 7BC. It's an absolute tack driver. I can just pile bullets through one ragged hole at 100 yards. In case my client doesn't go with my proposal, I usually sell them off through other channels to get my money back. In this case, I may keep it. I was planning on taking my 300PRC to SA next year, but this rifle is giving me reason to reconsider that. Has anyone used 7BC on African plains game?

Probably too big of a risk or worth taking a chance? Double Rifle for Sale on Gunbroker

I was browsing gunbroker as i do almost every weekend and saw this double rifle for sale that caught my eye. Listing says unknown caliber but also says its marked 8.9x72 which upon a little research i did probably means its a 9.3x72.

I understand its an old rifle but...

It's 24,700 acres of Bushveld — and, for anyone planning with family in mind, a certified malaria-free area.

My favorite Hunting rifle 338wm - what is yours?

I own and shoot and hunt with a lot of rifles and do not really have a true one gun solution. More like this is my favorite of the moment. It is my Sako 85 in 338 Win Mag. This is the same rifle that I used to drop a Nilgai in its tracks in East Texas last winter. It is topped with a 1-8x illuminated optic that works great out to 300ish yards and for me that is enough. It is not a tack driver but with 225g Barnes TTSX ammo it is able to hold 1moa pretty consistently and with the Federal...
