John,
I've used the 404-375 Ruger as my medium cartridge, in the role you suggest for the 375. I agree that a 404 is not as flexible as the 375, but it has served me in taking a number of PG animals when the heavier rifle was the 500, or when I used the 404 as my heavy.
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty of give me death! P. Henry
Deus vult!
