Certainly not a expert but I would tend to agree with the 375 and not use a premium bullet. A-Square used to make a 300gr lion designed bullet. It was a very destructive fast expanding round nose soft. The other that I have read a lot about is the 250gr Sierra which is also soft and opens quickly.

My understanding is you want a bullet that is going to open real fast and dump all the energy inside the cat without exciting. Just the opposite of what premium bullets are designed for.

If you want a 375 buy one. It is an awesome cartridge with a fair amount of excellent bullets available.
