you've got some time to shop for a good rifle AND a good price, I booked a hunt and went a few months later, I went with a Ruger Hawkeye African in 375 Ruger (before the crappy muzzlebrake-whatever-the-hell-thingy got attached) shot excellent and was $500 to $1000 less than anything else(then available.)
reloading components and ammo were readily available at reasonable prices, brass bullets and performance were excellent.
if a factory readily available rifle is what your looking for, instead of a used or discontinued model, I would recommend the Ruger.
I used it on a Black and Blue wildebeast, Gemsbok, Warthog, two Kudu, and got to look down the sights at a trophy cape buffalo bull, would have pulled the trigger without feeling undergunned, just the price was a bit out of my league.
I loaded Nosler 260 gr partitions and everything fell in one shot to the Ruger .375- I would recommend it.
