The 416 Remington or Rigby is the caliber I have recommended to our clients for many years it is far superior to the 375 and not too much for most people to handle. The Ruger 77 is about as good of an over the counter rifle you can buy. By the way congratulations on your Weatherby award!
If I had to hunt Africa with only one rifle for dangerous as well as plains game it would be a 416 with a detachable scope. I would rather be a little over gunned on the plains game than under gunned on dangerous game. In fact this was the case about 15 years ago when I did an exploratory hunt in Mozambique I took my pre 64 Winchester custom built in 416 Remington.
