Hi GH. I don't know if you have it sorted out by now but here are my 2 cents. I've hunted Russia twice for Brown Bears on the Kamchatka Peninsula. Neither hunt was over bait but rather spot and stalk. Shots range from CLOSE to 100 yards or a bit more. Interior hunts in Russia may be different. I've also made several DG hunts to Africa.

I used a 416 Rigby on the first Russia trip as well as my first 2 Africa trips. I used a 375 H&H on my second Russia hunt as well as several of my Africa trips. Personally, I like the 416 better but in all honesty, the 375 is probably more well rounded. Considering where you live and the laws you are subject to, I think you would be better off with the 375. It will do everything you need it to, just not with as much authority at times. Shot placement and bullet construction will ultimately be more important to you on your Dangerous Game hunts (and all others for that matter).

Good luck on your purchase and hunts.

Cheers,

Todd
