Re: Is there a gap in the Nitro Express calibre line up?

Yes the 375 JDJ is one heck of a cartridge, and now that factory ammo is available I don't have om any longer. The old Valmet was a real shooter, and the 375 Win, barrels were 1 in 12" twist, perfect for the 375 JDJ or the 375 H&H. I re-chambered that barrel set, and regulated it for 300 gr bullets, then perminately soldered the adjustments solid, then installed concave ribs between the barrels. Wish I had not sold it, but at the time I needed the money to buy a very good shape Westley Richards 500/450NE box lock double. Don't have that one anymore either!




Corrected post, The barrel was a 1 in 12" twist not 1 in 10" !

Sorry about that!
