Save up for a hunt one day, or sell off excess firearms and go now?

I've gone on the trip. Maybe you guys should read the entire thread before you post. I put the link on my previous post to the hunt report.

"A peculiar virtue in wildlife ethics is that the hunter ordinarily has no gallery to applaud or disapprove of his conduct. Whatever his acts, they are dictated by his own conscience, rather than by a mob of onlookers. It is difficult to exaggerate the importance of this fact."

Keep the 3-7-5 and let the others go. There is nothing you can't hunt with it. Solids for the little guys and ele, 250 gr softs to reach way out there and 300 gr softs for buffalo and eland etc. Hunt now. As others have said you never know what's around the corner.

I agree with Mark, keep the 375. As good an all around gun as you will ever find. Get a quick detach scope mount and a backup or low magnification scope for close up DG work and what Mark said about the rest

old saying...fear the guy with one gun cause he probably knows how to use it

Read your hunt report. Glad you made the trip. Nice bosses on that buffalo. I also like your choice of keeping the .416 RM. Most versatile caliber on the planet. It will do it all.
