Perfect Rifle for Eland and Lion

I’d use my .338 Win Mag or my .375 Ruger.

Your 9.3 should work fine too if legal.

Just to add:

I’ve never hunted in Africa but based my answer from asking a friend that has made over twenty trips in the 1970’s and 1980’s and has taken more animals than I could dream of.

He’s like a second father to me and is encouraging me to go over.
 
Going to see if I can find some 375 ammo with 300 grain Nosler Partitions. I have 300 grain TSX and have killed enough hogs with them to be very confident in their ability to immobilize quickly.

But a Partition is supposed to be the gold standard on big cats.
Might want to look at the Nosler Accubond.
Not the long range stuff but the regular Accubond. It was designed to perform as well, or better, than the Partition and is the replacement for the Partition from what I understand.

Hello Doug,
I am Philippe from France and plan to go hunting Caprivi in 2026, Oct.
I have read on AH you had some time in Vic Falls after hunting. May I ask you with whom you have planned / organized the Chobe NP tour and the different visits. (with my GF we will have 4 days and 3 nights there)
Thank in advance, I will appreciate your response.
Merci
Philippe
