Hunting Kodiak Island with a .375-caliber H&H rifle, Oberlitner always figured he was pretty well protected. The cartridge traces its history to the British company Holland & Holland, which designed it in 1912 for hunting dangerous African game -- lions and tigers. I

Was he deer hunting or bear hunting? Was the deer they shot bear bait? The .375 H&H is a way oversized for deer.

In bear country, you don’t hunt with a deer rifle. You hunt deer with a bear rifle.

A bear rifle will kill deer quite nicely, thank you, but if you need a bear round and all you have is a deer-sized round, you’re in deep doo-doo.

Tigers are actually rare in Africa.
