Numbers Schmumbers. A .375 beats all the others simply because the others are illegal for hunting dangerous game in Africa, except the 9.3X62 in some countries.
I always find this arguement funny. I think most people are aware of the regulations and in this case the OP has a 375. But buy a 338 Win Mag and you will never be able to hunt in Africa. The 338 is nothing but another rifle. Buy a 30-06 and you'll never be able to hunt in Africa... Honestly the 338 is just another medium magnum and a somewhat middle of the road one by today's standards, but boy mention it and people scare themselves $chittless over it. The 9.3X62 is legal in some areas for dangerous game in Africa but why bother buying one in the United States because one day you might hunt somewhere it's not allowed for DG. Another poor sod on these forums had a wonderful oppertunity to buy a 338 WM, same story... "you'll never go to Africa," "it won't do anything a 300 WM will do (nevermind the guy had a 30-06 already)" "you can download it to a 338 federal" and so forth, basically saying it will be the biggest mistake of his life and trying convincing him not to buy a rifle he has a great oppertunity getting. Congratulations?
