I'd like to emphasize 500Nitro's point about the Sierra bullets...I've never used the Taipans so I cannot comment on those.

But the Sierra bullets are something I use because I do use my .375 on varmints, and Sierra bullets are varmint and target bullets and nothing more.

In my experience the 300 gr. Sierra boattail spitzers are superbly accurate but seem to blow up on impact with anything thicker than a piece of paper. With my .375 H&H loads they do not always exit on a coyote (either that or I just can't find an exit hole), and the coyote looks like he swallowed a hand grenade. Also for any Aussies who haven't been to the USA, the average coyote is no thicker than the few dingos I've seen...think in terms of an animal with the body size of a Blue Heeler or a Queensland Heeler.

However I've heard differing reports from some people, including "excellent performance on elk" with the same bullet, so there may be some variation between production runs.
