I'd take the 375 H&H loaded with 270 gr TSX's at 2750 fps, it would be good practice in case you ever want to go to Africa and shoot some more really large antelope, plains game species. smile


If I were you, I would take the 338 or the 375. They are overkill on everything else (except maybe an irate feral hog) in Texas, and the Nilgai is truly worthy of such calibers.
