Welcome to AH.
Living in Northern VA myself.

Highly recommend the Swift A-Frame 300 grain for your hunt.
@USMA84DAB is using handloaded Barnes TTSX 270 grain with good results as well.
Not sure if you reload or not.

I did reload, but I have no where to set up yet, so I haven't bought any equipment back. I sold all that during the divorce.

I have been shooting a .375 Ruger since last SEP. I use 250 grain Barnes TTSX for now. As they are shot up I am replacing them with 270 grain TSXs and will just use that load.

Here is what they do to whitetail:

Welcome to AH @Viral_SIGness! Nice to have you as part of our community. Enjoy the site!
 
Yup, Virginia here. I am heading out next July. I found a new unfired CZ-550 Safari Classic .375 H&H on the used rack at Green Top last September. That is having some work done to make it "my own". Great cartridge. Very fun to shoot.

I found a Safari Classic on GunBroker for $725.

But I've already bought my .375 Ruger and I dont regret it!

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
