Plains game
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Plains game is well established in literature and conversation as the sporting hunter's generic term for all those fair-game species of antelope and gazelle which are to be found - typically in rather open plains or savanna habitats - throughout sub-Saharan Africa. The term is all-embracing, unscientific and rather imprecise, encompassing a great range of species from the little springbok and Thomson's gazelle to the very much larger kudu and eland.
Where the term plains game is used as an indication of the kind of game for which particular sporting rifle cartridges are deemed suitable, it is fair to assume that the same ammunition also performs efficiently on other non-dangerous ungulates occurring elsewhere in the world, such as deer.
