Re: H&H vs Wby

In reply to:
Myself, I have a 375 Ultra project that is ongoing and see it as a true one rifle Safari gun. All you have to do is see how much success Saeed has had with his (375/404) and his bullets have all held up admirably. The day of having wrong bullets is really in the past unless you're choosing it for the wrong application based on erroneous information.
That is no qualification for the ULTRA, because the 375 H&H is a "one gun" rifle already, and Saeed would have good luck with a 30-30 on anything he chose to hunt with it. It ain't the rifle in Saeed's case, it is Saeed! The hoped up 375s, will do nothing that the old 1912 375 H&H will not do, with the same bullet, as well, except burn more powder, and produce more recoil!
It is a free country, at least the country I live in, and you may shoot what ever floats your boat, but that doesn't make the ULTRAs better than the plain old chap from H&H! Anything you can hit at 300 yds with your ULTRA I can hit with my old 375 H&H, and kill it just as dead, and the closer you get to the muzzle of the rifle the old H&H works even better! Cutting steel out of the chamber to turn a 375 H&H into a 375 WBY, is simply wasted steel,and money, IMO!
My opinions are worth every penny you pay for them, and are cheap at twice the price!
