Thanks Guy, that's a nice stick, you need to get that rifle to Africa, gotta build a history with it Buddy.
Ya, it deserves to be used.
ALMOST took it to Alaska for grizzly last spring, but decided on the lighter 30-06 instead. The smaller rifle worked fine, but in retrospect I kind of wish I'd smacked that big bear with my big rifle.

That is a good looking rifle! There is a thread on another forum here that says the .30-06 sucks, and yet another that says its obsolete. So you'd best go back to Alaska and slay another bear with the .375!!!
I guess packing an old '06 will get you eaten by a big bruin...
Don't ask Phil about the '06, just read his by-line...
If hunting a big bear, I'd be packing my .375 H&H, likely stoked with 270 TSX's or 300 NPT's, either one should do the trick if I do my part.
