[QUOTE="Deleted member 115374, post: 2126325"] 375HH in a CZ w/300 gr. Trophy Bonded Sledgehammers for solids and 300 gr. Swift A Frames for softs worked well for me. With handloads I was able to get both to same point of impact @ 200 yds. If your taking one rifle for Buffalo only then my preference would be a 450/400 NE in a good double rifle. The nice thing about the 375 HH is often when you are hunting in Africa the odds of running into Eland, Kudu, Sable or any of the plains game that might be on your list is high and the 375HH with a 1.5-5X or similar will give you accuracy and reach if you need it. The majority of the PHs over there would rather see you show up with something like a 375 or 458 Lott that you shoot well vs a 475, 500 or bigger that you cant shoot due to recoil issues, flinching or not being able to get that second shot off due to barrel rise etc.. of the big bores.
