LRF,
Thanks for teh info about cases. I was wondering how to make / get cases for a 375 2 1/2". Now I know. I have seen a few double rifles in this caliber.

If I see a nice one for a reasonable price (reasonable to me), I may pursue it.

When I said that the 375 2 1/2" was similar to the 375 MS, I may not have been that clear. I meant it is similar in performance, though that may not be correct if the ballistics are close to the 38/55. Regardless, it should be a great deer, black bear, hog cartridge and also good for ringing gongs. .

Image of Lee Speed shows different (lower) British proof load than that of M1910 Mannlicher Schoenauer.

I'd load a bit light.
