I just got done reading your responses and contributions on africahunting.com. I've been a member there for a few years. Well done Sir Ron!

I almost went to the range today, it's been relatively warm and sunny at 10*C, but didn't feel completely ready. I want to try some of those 400gr TBBC, and I've loaded some 250 TTSX over BIG GAME for my .375. Barnes shows a max of 84.3 grs for their 270gr TSX and LRX, so I loaded 83 for the 250 TTSX, and that seemed highly compressed. If that works out for accuracy, I should be getting well over 2900 fps. The .375 will serve as back-up for the .458 on the Spring Bear Hunt. I've been contributing to the thread on a Ruger No.1 in .375 H&H for black bear. Very interesting thread, even if a bit contentious!
