I've never hunted with a double rifle, but if I had one made up, I'd get one made for a .375-'06 improved.
I have a custom bolt rig in this calibre. I build the cases up on .35 Whelen brass, load 62 grains of IMR4895 for 2600 fps with a Nosler 260 grain partition. I get about 2400 fps with a 300 grain Hornady. Seems to me it'll do about what the old .375 did in it's heyday.
Similar to the .375 Nitro Express perhaps but the .375 NE is a rimmed cartridge.
Also the .375 H&H Flanged which is the rimmed version of the .375 H&H Magnum.
