CCHunter,

I've experimented quite a bit with the 375 and various bullet weights not so much becaseu of playing around but becasue I had to find something that could fit between my 303 and the 375 H&H.

And so came the testing of the 210 grain BarnesX almost as long as the 270 grain Hornady spitzer and you can push it too over 3000 fps with the correct powders. Big game long range load if you ask me. I have some 350 grainers lying at a friend of mine but I jjust need to get sometime to try them out I hope to get around 2350-2400 fps if possible I don't see why as I can push a 286 grain Mono Solid at 2600 fps and it has lot more bearing surface than the 350 grainers. That will almost place the 375 in the 416 category !

To me the 375 is just the best all rounder you can get if loaded properly. I just love my 375 what can I say !

Loads
210 grain barnesX 2950 fps
270 grain Spitzer Hornady 2600 fps
286 grain PMP Mono solid 2600 fps
300 grain Hornady RN 2500 fps
300 grain Hornady solid 2500 fps

Experimeting with duplex loads we have managed to push the 270 grainers to 2700 fps without pressure !
