Lumped together because they are the common
legal DG chamberings, not necessarily because
they are all big bores.
Have those three Co. explicitly categorized .375
as a big bore in literature ?

John Pondoro Taylor, Jack O and Craig Boddington
all refer to .375 as medium.

SCI article on 375 Ruger refers to .375 H&H
as "Queen of the medium bores"

"I found that many of the 17 white hunters regularly
employed by White Hunters Limited of Niarobi used
a .375 for their medium rifle, and most all of them
considered it ideal."

- Elmer Keith, Safari, Safari Pulications (1968), p. 136.


I think the cover says .375 Super Mediums
