Open sighted .450/400 for a 1 gun Safari?

So I took my Heym 89b 450/400 to the range today to do some load development. Hornady DGX 400 grain bullets over 90 grains of VV N565 seems ro work well and gave about 15mm L and R pairs at 30 metres. The two DGS bullets I fired seemed to be no different to the DGX.
what do our fundis think of this load?
But yes, you were all correct, I need a 1moa Trijicon and I have found one in Johannesburg. The 3.25 moa is great for buffalo inside 75 metres, but for PG I will need more definition.

Hi Jay,

Hope you're well.

I'm headed your way in January.

Attending SHOT Show has been a long time bucket list item for me.

Finally made it happen and I'm headed to Vegas.

I know you're some distance from Vegas - but would be keen to catch up if it works out.

Have a good one.

Mark
