In episode 56, Matthew and Jon want to dispel a common myth, safari rifles must cost $10,000 or more. We cover plains game and dangerous game rifle recommendations as well as ammo suggestions. We break it down into three categories: new, used, and classic. Cravat, dangerous game rifles are not overly budget friendly, but this is a life sustaining piece of kit, so keep that in mind. We hope you enjoy and we will catch you on the next one.
