Or, having recently gained access to a magnificent Fallow Deer hunting property where some longer range shots could be called for, perhaps building something like a 300H&H Magnum may be in order (although I am quite confident out to 400 odd yards with my 7x57)
I like the classic nitro express caliber’s too. Maybe I should build a nice “little” 400/350
.300 H&H to match your .375.
Nice long barrels to get the maximum out of the cartridge.
I always like the medium and bigger bore NE's in a good single shot too.

I have 5 #1s and a #3 ranging from the .22 Hornet to the .375 H&H, but my all around favorite is the .300H&H. It does fit right in between the 7x57 and the .375.
I made my first trip to Africa just this year and the .300 H&H is the rifle that went with me.
