I was very pleased as well with the performance of the .375 ruger. I took an African model and handloaded 300 grain Swift A-Frames with a near maximum load of Reloader powder. I have the data at home, however I got it of the internet. I am using reloader in the .416 ruger too. I used a .458 lott for my buffalo and hippo, but I would have been very comfortable shooting them with the .375 ruger. I have shot wild boar here in the states and everything thing from impala to kudu with mine. I have a 2.5-8 Zeiss Conquest on mine with Warne QD rings. I love it, simple as that..
