An 11 inch pizza is 49% bigger than a 9 inch pizza, and we all know that an 11 inch pizza is better than a 9 inch pizza.
A 458 is 49% bigger than a 375, so therefore it follows that a 458 is better than a 375.
Right ?
Given the obviousness of this argument, how do they continue to sell 375s ?

People with smaller appetites are usually less ............. for lack of a better word, rotund, right? Therefore, the people who order the 9 inch pizzas can more easily accept the recoil of the 375s than they can the recoil of the 458s. C'mon, Art! Makes perfect sense! Think about these things a little, will ya?  |

Unless of course, you can buy TWO 9" pizza's for less than one 11".....thereby increasing your "pizza value" by 52%!

Ya, here they have "buy one get one free" specials all the time. Two 375's should be better than one 458 I would think. |

some people hunt small game and the 375 is ideal for that, no need to over kill it with a 458

BOGOS for 9" pizzas can be found but no BOGOS for 12" pizzas being offered around these parts. |

I wonder how the 375 would be on tree squirrels?   Brings a whole new meaning to "barking" squirrels. Instead of hitting bark, you could just aim for the nearest 2" of wood. Course, with the 458 would could aim 4" deep. |

.458 pizza kicks like the dickens. My .375 kicks more like a calzone (not nearly as much).
I love big guns, but there are a number of factors that would drive me to the .375 H&H. Cost, (already have the smaller gun). Have dies, components, experience, well sighted in low power scope. etc.
Of course I want a .458. Also a .416 and a .470 double. I don't need any of these in North America, and will probably turn down a trip to Africa next year because of budgetary considerations plus my back trouble (yellow streak). CB

It depends are we talking a 458 with regular Crust (458 Win Mag) or deep dish(458 Lot)?
