I am a .375 fan. I love my brother's .375 so much I have been thinking of having me one made. The .375 H&H would be overkill for what you want but why not think of something like the .375 Scovill (sp?). It is the .375 on a .30-06 case. From the data I have seen you can get the .235 gr Barnes X up to about 2700 fps in it. That ought to be good enough for anything in North America. If it is interesting to you I can e-mail you some data.
