Just wondering what scope, if any, people are using on their Rigby HS rifles (or other similar stalking rifles) ?

And, why did you choose what you chose?

My HS is in 30/06. She has a 1” S&B 4x scope in EAW QD mounts. I chose that setup because 4x is all I need for hunting and I didn’t want a big, heavy scope upsetting the balance of the rifle.

However, more often than not I hunt her with just the iron sights.

She’s a delightful rifle to shoot.

Good Morning x84958
I have read your post about Jamy Traut and your hunt in Caprivi. I am planning such a hunt for 2026, Oct with Jamy.
Just a question , because I will combine Caprivi and Panorama for PG, is the daily rate the same the week long, I mean the one for Caprivi or when in Panorama it will be a PG rate ?
thank you and congrats for your story.
Best regards
Philippe from France

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
