I'd go for the Winchester. You only have to buy it once, but you get to keep it forever.
Winchester availability could possibly be an issue for some. I ordered one in M70 Alaskan in 338 WM 18 months ago. I'm still waiting for it to grace our Canadian shores.
One thing I know already is that I need a new rifle since a buffalo is my main goal. But I still will need something suitable for a plains game hunt.
the .458 Winchester Mag is the same price and I am tempted to go all Dirty Harry here and go for the biggest gun I can get!
Yeah you and your 500 ;-) I must admit nice piece of wood.
I bought a CZ 550 375 H&H for my first big bore. It's really nice. I also like the Win Model 70 375 H&H. If we were talking about the Ruger RSM, then I would be excited to buy one of these.
375 H&H, would be my definite choice, especially if you were going to also use it on plains game. If purely for DG, 416 Rigby has to have the best penetration.
