22-250 and 243 for "small" plains game

My last hunt I shot a 30-06 suppressed, didn't feel the recoil. I would ask the outfitter what rifles they have with suppressor. If she can shoot a 270 without suppressor she definitely can shoot 30-06 with suppressor.
@DieJager - I would hope so because with .30-06 & .270 using the same 150 gr bullet (at same velocity) and assuming Same-weight-rifle: recoil should be “almost the same”…within 5%-7%? I own both and unless shooting many rounds at the Bench - notice very little difference.
 
If she shoots your 270 well I would just take it for her.I shot my hyena with a 416 Rem....lol

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.

I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).

Very interested.

Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?


I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris
