Phillip Holden did a few hunts with the outfit I guided for (good bloke I liked him) & I also read all his books at school & after, but he only used a .243Win because he hated recoil & couldn't take a lot of shots with more, we did up grade him to a 25/06 later !

I think the 30/06 is the do it all if a reloader & 308Win if not, I'd pick 30/06 -.223 if I had to pick two, if allowed 3 add 12ga if 4 add .22LR !
