Nice rifle - and nicely thought out wildcat. The 86gr. capacity matches the .416 Taylor common for short magnum brass.
Like your .400, my .375 is an improved case. I wasn't aware that 2.65" brass was available. Mine, a .375/06IMP with the same .460" shoulder and a slightly shorter, 9.3x62-type neck, is made from normal '06. In this configuration, the round has 80gr. capacity, 2 gr. more than a factory Sako brass 9.3x62 fired in a Styer. Mann.
I also neck mine straight before necking down for fireforming, just as I do when forming 9.3x62's as well.
