George - got my first 375 about 10 years ago and was thoroughly impressed with how easy it was to shoot well.

Yes - I knew I'd fired a powerful rifle - but... as you described, it was like a big push instead of a harsh, snappy rap.

I've shot it quite a bit and have taken three black bear with it, but nothing more. It's fun to haul it out of the safe and go shoot a few rounds through it now and again. Love banging the 300 yard steel gong at the gun club with that Ruger!

I dunno if I'll ever hunt buffalo. It's been fun just owning, loading for, hunting with a 375 H&H. Such a nice cartridge!
