The 300 H&H is very much alive and well, just not as "in vogue" as it used to be. The market is being flooded with new calibers with miniscule performance differences, will undoubtedly fade in popularity through the years. The difference between bullets going down range 30 times the speed...

IF this is an honest inquiry, you need to match your finances with your reality. Everyone who's retired is is on a fixed income.

You aren't under gunned with the 375 H&H. It'll kill every dangerous game animal in Africa Alaska, and Russia.

My hunting distances vary based on the MPBR of the rifle/caliber I'm using; no further though.

Paying for lost animals really makes me a conservative hunter. I punch paper at much longer distances than that which I hunt.

Wildebeests are beautiful animals to be sure and nothing (to me) is more majestic that watching a blue wildebeest running. Over my trips to Africa, I shot the blue, black and golden wildebeests. Next trip I'll be hunting the king's wildebeest.

What a beautiful Island and a trophy Fallow! Great report!

That's one beautiful trophy!

I shoot both and have success with both; even the DG. When I shoot factory loads however, I am verrry particular and only go with Federal, Norma, Hornady or Nosler.

What a trophy! Congrats and welcome to AH!

The Buck was taken in the Pennsylvania mountains; the Sable in the Limpopo region of South Africa
