Your choices may be WAY different than mine.
3 bolt-actions; 2 lever-actions and an autoloader, etc. I just wanted to clarify that because I'm interested in YOUR 3 choices! |

The key phrase is BIG GAME RIFLES.
This to me means 1000lb or more. Rigby double rifle in 600 Nitro Express for tight shooting. Wetherby bolt action in 460WM if plains shooting. And the old standby, Remington 870 with 00 buck shot on my back for back up, Or a G-3 full auto if in Africa. Remember the old saying, "Use enough Gun", And always look over your shoulder when field dressing your game. You never know what is trying to sneak up on you, or if you just happen to be something else's dinner. |

No choice for the semi-auto or lever action.
Bolt 416 Rigby Bolt 375 H&H Mag Double gun 9.3x74R These are the rifles that I take to Africa when I go hunting |

When it comes to huge firepower go with a bolt or a .50 Auto

Ruger No1 .30-06
Ruger No1 .416 Rigby No need for a 3rd, but since this is your thread I'll take a Holland & Holland double in .700 Nitro Express. If you were to ask for the 1 rifle/cartridge for everything, I would go with a .375 H&H in anything you like. |
