Horrible questions but have to ask....
How many .375 H&H's or .416's do you own?

I am beginning to think I am the only one with a covey of them....

One 375 and no 416's yet. I love my 375 to pieces and the sentimental value of it will likely preclude me from using another in its place. I'll likely add a 416 and/or 404 to the stable one day, but have talked myself out of it to pay for more hunting, to date.

1-375 H&H and 1-416 Hoffman. Both custom built on pre-64 actions. I’ve had the 416 since 1988 and love it for a 2-gun battery, along with my 338 win mag. But…

I just took my 375 on its 2nd hunt, this time by itself to Cameroon. This just might be my new favorite rifle.

18 total.

Some are factory chambering.

Several wild cats.

Use only one for hunting now.

A 375/404.

It simply works.

Accurate and deadly! clap

I have a Blaser R93 with two barrels in .375 H&H. One barrel for range practise mainly, the other for hunting only, apart from checking sights etc.
Also a Win M70 CRF .375 H&H. I love hunting with this rifle, much more so than the Blaser which has now become a backup rifle.
Don't have any .40 cal rifles.
Your question is not awful. I like people asking about mt bigger game rifles.


Hunting.... it's not everything, it's the only thing.

Just 1 thus far...Pre-64 in 375 H&H with custom/upgraded stock.

I really "need" a 404 or 416.

If I remember correctly...

Three 375 H&Hs
Two 375 Weatherbys
One 375 RUM

Four 416 Remingtons
One 416 Rigby
One 416 Dakota

Except for the Rigby, they're all built on Winchester Classic actions, some stainless but mostly blued.

Some are retired, some are ignored, some I'm dissatisfied with, a couple are actively hunted.

Hmmm... think I'm a serial big bore freak. But not to the extent Saeed and Ongwe are. Big Grin

Four .375's, two H&H's, one Ruger and one RUM.

Five .416's, three Rigbys, one Remington and one Ruger.

Glad you didn't ask about .404's and .458's!


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...

I go from 375 to 458, although a 416 would certainly split the difference.

My .416 Rem. is my go to rifle for everything and I need a really good reason to use anything else. I almost bought another .375 because I thought I needed one to meet a minimum caliber requirement and wanted a different scope, etc., but learned it was not needed. So one of each at the moment.

First 375 is a CZ 550, although it is more or less my sons now, he shoots nilgai on the King Ranch with it. He was using a 300 WM, but the lure of the big H&H got to him.

A pair of Heyms - a Martini bolt gun in 375, probably my one favorite rifle of all time. Inside 400-500 yards, it's usually one shot and done. My favorite shot with it was at about ten feet though.

An 88B, in 416 Rigby, it gets used for buffalo and elephant, or places I think I am going to be vision limited. The penetration of this round is excellent, with either TSX or solids, I am OK pursuing anything.
