.375 should be banned from buffalo hunts!

The Hilux seat seem to be just bolted to the floor. I've sat in mini minors with higher driver seats.
The Hilux when you hit a bump it feels like the floor pan is hitting you in the arse the seats are that low.

The Nissan 720 pickup were not much better.
But being 6 6 that stright to the petal and being able to slide the 720 seat back to tuch the little jump seat in the back worked ok
Until you hit a hole

Think your getting a bar stool and a vehicle seat mixed up......every vehicle I have used my legs go straight in front of me...bar stool down......now I know which you prefer....

I take it you have never drove many old fords
They were like sitting in chairs

No, it has two triggers. Look close and you can see the lead for second trigger entering the action next to the forward trigger. The angle of photo almost hides second trigger behind trigger guard.

That's like saying use enough 243. To me nothing you do to a land crab can make it the equal of a Nissan Patrol. Don't get me started on the Toyota HiLux. The clown that designed that built the vehicle then decided on the seating. The driver's seat is that low your legs are almost straight out when you sit in it. The ergonomics for the driver leave a lot to be desired.

Being a Nissan owner ( aka Toyota recovery vehicle) we love paying out in ANY other brand especially Toyota.

The Dutch here in SA are big people, they like the Hilux just fine.

No calibre will offset poor shot placement. What is true, though, the larger calibre increases the permissible margin of error i.e an iffy shot has a bigger impact.

Also, comparing 400g projectile in 416 to 300g in 375 is 2 very significant variables, caliber & projectile

The 375 probably ranks in the top 10 calibres for taking big & dangerous game. I recall seeing elephant cull footage in Rhodesia (Zimbabwe), dropping them with single shots using old FN's in 308
