Don't have either, but know the advantages of 444. With that being said, I'd go with 375 Win. HTH

I'd choose the 444 loaded with Ranch Dog's 300 gr. FN and a hefty charge of H 335. I haven't got a 375 Win but I do have 3 rifles chambered for the 38-55.

356 Win. although I have 375 and 444, the 356, which is of course a 358 just has better ballistics.
