Ha! Did you see that?
I only need to carry one gun!
As an alternate to .460 you could use 410 the .454 pretty much makes the .460 redundant maybe a longer teach with the .460...
Revolver caliber so if you wanted something fast on your hip

Because you selected a 375 h&h when we all know there is a better modernized choice.

Newer and faster doesn't always mean better. Something needs to be said for class, which 375 H&H has in spades.

 

[northern skies]

I'll stick to two.

6.5x55
.338-06.

Got a short action? Ok then, 7mm-08/.338 Federal.

Yep - there are a few cartridges that, even after over 100 years, we have not been able to improve on or replace: 22 LR, 6.5X55, 30-30, 375 H&H come to mind.

Couldn't agree with you more.. Thanks Polinator !

While it's absolutely true the 375 Ruger is the modern 375 cartridge of choice - superior in all respects to the 375 H&H- some people still enjoy nostalgia, and the 375 H&H, with it's obsolete case design and long history has nostalgia in spades. Lot's of people enjoy vintage things, so it's perfectly understandable to use an obsolete cartridge like the H&H, if this thing appeals to you.

There are a huge number of hunters still buying new rifles chambered in 375 H&H and acquiring used ones chambered similarily and I think that is a tribute to the undying popularity of the 375 H&H.
They are smart enough to see past the BS and realize that the performance difference between it and the Ruger is negligible.
No amount of slagging / criticism can take away the fact that the 375 H&H is a superb cartridge and will be popular for a great many years to come.
I have both it and the Ruger and like them both...

 

[freire]

It is my opinion that in the next 100 years the .375 Ruger will not achieve the fame or class nor the animals harvested by the venerable .375 Holand & Holand.
