Re: Another .375 H & H post...

I used the 375 extensively in the 70s and 80s with the 300gr Sierra and 76gr of Win 760. Everything shot at was killed with 1 shot...including elk, moose, brown bears, and a carabou at 300 yards. When finally chronogrphed, my load was just under 2400fps in a stock pre 64 M70. I've no experience with any 9.3s on game but have a 150.1 Merkel in 9.3x74 that will hunt someday. I'm sure the moderate velocities of the 9.3x 74 will be every bit as effective as the old 375 load. Too bad the 376 Steyr never caught on...it's a better round than the 9.3x62 IMO.
