Re: .375, the medium bore shooter's Big bore

Anyone use this great "little" .375 bullet with a .338/458 case? Looking at load data and considering the massive availability of standard actions it would seem like a ballistic "twin" of the world famous .375 H&H with a much shorter bolt throw. With factory cases based on the 458 brass starting at .264 and running through 7MM, .338, and .458, why didn't they finish the lineup? It just makes sense if they would have offered more ammo variety(as they are now) the manufacturers would sell more rifles without having to create a new basic case. Why didn't the larger gun companies offer this 2.500" case with the .375 and .416? Have there been problems on safari with these medium bore magnum wildcats?
