Carrying a rifle that is big enough for ANY game animal you're likely to encounter suddenly in the bush Velda simply makes too much sense to me to do anything else.
And that sir, is an outstanding reason for me to own a .375, even though I'm just dreaming of hunting Africa at this point! It does make one heck of a black bear cartridge in the meantime...

I purchased my first .375 in 1987. My first .458 in 1988.
I made my first trip to Africa in 2015!
And finally on my second in 2019 I will actually hunt DG.
So don't let the calendar, or what passes for common sense, stop you!
If you are a handloader, you can hunt the U.S. quite nicely with what most folks consider to be an "Elephant rifle"!
