Large caliber rifle help

My two larger caliber rifles are the 7mm RUM and 375 H&H (also own a Marlin 45-70 SBL but really consider it as a close in caliber). For me, there is nothing in my world that one of these two calibers would not be very effective harvesting.
I would take that a step further and say other than the largest dangerous game, the 7mm RUM would be my choice for about anything I hunt.Last edited by WyoBull; 03-08-2019, 11:40 AM.

I just followed this train off its rails.

I have a Mossberg Patriot in .375 Ruger that is light but haven’t shot it past 100. I recently traded for a Browning Bar in .338 Win Mag. Ammo for the .375 Ruger is in the $50’s. I bought ammo through Vizards for the .338 and it cost me $33 a box for the Hornady 225 grain SST’s Superformance ammo. I would go with the .338 and buy several boxes of ammo and then dies.

If you like recoil, give it a whirlOriginally posted by xman59 View Postsince when was the 45-70 not a true big bore? it was mentioned several times
The trajectory seems like an issue, though
