All I need to know is that its more gun and more recoil than I'll ever need. My full house .45-70 loads out of my Marlin Guide Gun is quite enough thank you.
But from what I hear the 375 Ruger is quite a step up from the 375 H&H that has been taking game including the big 5 for a long long time.

Just in case anyone is interested.
I have been shooting my Ruger Old Army, ROA, and the results have amazed me. So far the best load has been 35 gr /v/ of Pyrodex P under a 0.457 RB. I have tried 25, 30, 35, 40, & 45 grains. I have attached photos of the last three loads. All are 6 shot groups at 10 yards. Will back up and shoot some more next week. The target dot is 1.75 inches in diameter.
