Buying a 375 H&H Will I be disappointed?

G'day everyone. I met a gentleman at the range the other day (here in QLD Australia) I noticed this loud noise and went over to investigate. He was sighting in a 416 Rigby he'd just bought. We got talking and I asked if I might have a shot. I have always been curious about the bigger calibres. Prior to this the largest cal. I'd shot was a 308 (had a 3006 M1 Grand-when they were legal, sob sob; but as that was quite heavy and semi auto I don't think that counts) I had a couple of shots off the bench with the 416 and was pleasently surprised. Actually you couldn't wipe the smile off my face for the rest of the day. Decided to order one. After some investigating I found out the cost of ammo. That put me off. I don't reload at the moment. I ordered the 375 H&H instead. It's a CZ550 with the American stock. Should be getting it in a week or 2. I'm a bit uncertain now and wondering if I should have got the 416. Gun is mainly being used for fun with the odd pig hunt and hopefully buffalo hunt one day. Anyway this is my 1st post. Am wondering if the 375 has the same fun factor?
