McCray Campfire Regular M Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 901	FWIW...the guy who has probably shot more trophy lions than anyone alive has used a 375 RUM (3002750ish, IIRC) on most of them. Last year I followed the vultures in to three problem lion kills and I thought the 3/8" hole in the end of my 375H&H looked awfully small! These lions were just out of a park and I had been warned they didn't have any real fear of humans...especially when humans disturbed their dinner! Next time I will take a 416 Remington or maybe the 375 Weatherby (3002700ish) I just built. If you can stomach the Ruger, I'm sure it would work also.
