Personally, all these articles of BEST EVER, TOP EVER.. kinda turn me off.. still good reading at times, but its usually written in an opinion based manner by the author vs real world experiences..

I have used the .416Rem and 375H&H both on Safari --either in Zim or Cameroon (375H&H)-- 6 total.... For buff especially, much prefer the 416... noticeable difference when hit by the .416.. IMHO.. .375H&H is a good choice when hunting for larger PG and you might want to take a buff or whatever... I am a firm believer I will never go on safari with anything less than a .375H&H when I open wild areas like Zim .. never know what or when you might stumble into when your PH is not around..has happened many times...

The 416 still shoots flat enough that 250 yard shots are possible..shot a bush buck at 265yds with mine on my last trip to Zim.. yet incredibly deadly close up on buff or ele ..per my experiences..

IMHO, the 500Nitro is the perfect double rifle caliber...like its ballistics better than the .470..

Gotta run.. will respond more later.. if time allows..
