Got my rifle back today, I went with 375 Whelen and now I just have to wait for the dies I have on back order with CH4D. I have 50 rds of new Remington 35 Whelen brass and an expander die so at least I can get a little bit of a start. :)

I have a .375 Gibbs on a Mauser action and love it!  Fun gun, will be a great brush hunter.

Just on a side note the P14 action will take up to the .577 Tyranasaur if you can find a smith to do it. I have a couple around for something different one of these days.

As fun as that would be I have my heart set on a classic British safari caliber, I probably will never see Africa but I have three boys so.....
