[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2338868, member: 10755"] I have hunted several continents now. Have a 375 Weatherby, 416 Rigby, 458 Lott, 404 Jeffrey, 500 Nitro & 505 Gibbs. The 375 Bee and 416 Rigby are the rifles I take for DG OS, have only used the 458 Lott & 505 Gibbs out of country, the others get used annually in Australia on water buff. The fast 375’s are a game changer. Have the punch of a 416 and the trajectory of a 30-06 with 180’s. Hits on game is noticeably heavier, buff will nose down at the impact and often struggle to regain their feet. For pure hitting power, this starts at the 416’s and goes up, but I will say that the 416 Rigby is more emphatic than the 458 Lott on impact. My other big bores are just emphatic killers and the 505 Gibbs is just awesome….at both ends. A 600g bullet travelling at 2350fps hits with such power that most animals are rocked and don’t recover quickly. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
