Does anyone have experience loading the 350g Woodleigh Protected Points and Solids in a 375 Weatherby? If so what kind of velocity and accuracy are you getting?

Regards,
Chuck

Hello Chuck,

a friend of mine and me were both aquiring Brno .375 H&H and let them modified to .375 Weatherby.

I reached (barrel length: 61cm, ca. 24") 837 m/s with the 300grs Hornady Soft Point RN (88.0grs Dynamit Nobel R904, similar to Reloader 19). I hope that I will get 350grs bullets in spring, then I will report about results.

I like this cartridge and itīs performance, even if it is not needed.
My friend used it for some roe deer (ca. 15kg), and reported no dangerous situations for being undergunned.

best regards
Rolf

Thanks Rolf, don't know if I'm going to go that route, but if I could get 2550 fps with 350g Woodleighs without high pressure, I probably will make the jump.

Chuck
