350gr loads for the 375H&H?
      #60489 - 28/07/06 07:38 PM

I am looking for a load to get about 2525-2560fps with a 350gr pill out of my 375H&H for use on buffalo and scrub bulls.

2300 - 2400 fps is more realistic.

Try ADI Manual

About the only way to do it is to re-chamber it to 375 Weatherby...probably not an option...

I couldn't find any loads over 300gr @ 2645fps as listed in the ADI manual, and I thought a loss of only 125fps with an extra 50gr of lead might be possible.
2400fps would be plenty for my needs anyway and kinder to the shoulder as well.

There are loaddata for 350 grain bullets in Modern Reloading, 2.ed. from Lee, and in the loaddata database www.loaddata.com.

We get 2420fps from 74grns of AR2209 with 350grn Woodleigh solids from a Parker Hale Safari, but our standard load is 73grns for 2350fps
Great penetration.
