Real world ballistics- 375 x 2 1/2 NE Flanged

You can read velocities and foot/pounds and energies all day long, but what does it really mean ???
I have been thinking of rebarrelling my LSA for some time to this mythical calibre, probably just so I can say I have a Nitro Express calibre without having to mortgage the house, but I would like to know what this cartridge can really do.

Would it be good enough for the larger deer or sambar....at an appropriate range ?

What sort of distance could it be used for....under 100m ?....out to 250 ?

All this would of course be done with a 270 Gr Woodleigh and an appropriate powder with open sights, most likely a peep.

If you own a rifle, sorry, make that HUNT with this calibre, I would be interested to hear your comments....for or against. (the only thing I don't want to hear is someone telling me to use this or that other calibre, this is a question about the 375 NE Flanged ! )
