The definition of a big bore is always facinating. For the purposes of this site, the 375 is part of the big bores. I suspect this is because it has such a wide following among African hunters. Using the same logic, I would like to see the 9.3mm considered a big bore and be included on this site.

I suppose it could occupy both sites if the "other" site doesn't want to let go. stir

Historically it has been included in the big bore and med bore threads..

The more I hear this classification BS the more confused I get..I mostly just ignore it because its never been defined except in about ten million peoples imagination..then you get into long winded sub classifications like light big bore, med. light big bore, heavy med bore and on and on, it never ends..

Best to go by caliber, that seems to work for us curmudgeons for many moons past. horse

Ultra Bore .550 +

Big Bore--- .458--.510

Medium Bore-- 338 to .423

Everything else is for F**K**G RATS!!!!!!! And damned near useless for that! If it's left up to me anything under .338 caliber will be disposed of and considered obsolete, ceasing all production immediately, there is no use for them!

We will keep 22 lr for the kids and old ladies!

The owner of this site has placed the 9.3 in 'Medium Bores' and the .375 in 'Big Bores'.

On your site, you can organize it differently.
