In reply to:

The 375 H&H gets the nod because it's legal to use for "Dangerous Game" where the 9.3x74R @.366 diameter might not be.




The 9.3X74R is not dirrectly compared to the 375H&H belted Mag, but is paired with the 375 H&H Flanged. The 9.3X74R is a balistic twin to the 9.3X62 Mauser, and is legal in all but a hand full of provences for dangerous game. In some places the 9.3X62, and 9.3X74R are legal for the cats only. In a double rifle I wouldn't hesitate to take on, even Elephant with a solid with the 9.3X74R, in open bush, but in close quarters it is just a little too light for my taste, especialy if the animal is wounded.

Though I wouldn't worry much about it,for myself, I can't say I would reccomend either of the 9.3s, or the 375 H&H, as a close quarters life saver,to just anyone, but for general hunting all are good with proper loads, and bullet placement.
