It will be a pity to give up to my other rifles, but I had to keep only one caliber, it would be the .375 H&H magnum.
I have been hunting with this caliber since 2010, a bit in Africa of course but also in driven hunt and sometimes for the walk and stalk.
My rifle is a Blaser R93. First I used it with a classic woodstock but it cracked. So, I left this stock in the safe and I bought a professional stock much stronger. It started its life with a Zeiss 3-12x56, and now I use it with a Leica 2.4-16x56. I also have a Swarovski Z6i 1-6x24 for driven hunt. I removed the factory trigger and I have fitted a Bix'n Andy trigger that is awesome.
Here are some games hunted with "Black Mamba". This nickname comes from a Namibian girl I introduced to hunting and handling rifles. She found its recoil pretty aggresive and strong, and because of its colour (grey stone), she called it "Black mamba" !

I also had the opportunity to borrow, use and hunt a little bit with a Krieghoff side by side double rifle.

Nice rifle and well balanced.
 
Have the Bix N Andy trigger as well. Stock R93 trigger is great, but feel that trigger steps it up a notch.
 
Another 375 Caliber I am considering is the 375 Raptor
Based off the 308 Winchester case.
Load examples:
235 grain : 2,400-2,675 fps : 3,005-3,734 ft-lbs
270 grain : 2,200-2,400 fps : 2,901-3,453 ft-lbs
400 grain : 1,061 fps : 1,000 ft-lbs
I have an AR10 sitting there begging for a barrel change. Another route would be a short action Savage 110. Projects and projects.
