Curl:
I built my .444/.375 on a No.1 Mk.III Lee Enfield. About the most grunt you can get out of the 'Smelly' action!

Ol'mate Vic P_ had a .375 throater, so we stuck it on the front of a .308 reamer and pushed it in 57 mm, no worries. Cut the rim recess on the lathe. No action or magazine mods required! Sizing die is a cheap Lee RGB .308 die, softened and bored through with a 25/64 drill (from memory). Didn't even bother re-hardening it, works fine. Eat yer heart out, J.D.Jones!

I agree, its a ripper of a cartridge, my rifle has taken several buffalo with the .270gr Hornady spire-point or the 285gr Speer Grand-Slam bullet. I use ADI powders though.

Here's my daughter with a 'victim'


Apologies L2S, you can have your thread back now. Nice Husky BTW, and a sensible cartridge. As an aside, I wonder if anyone here has read the book "Momella" by Maximillian von Rogister. One of my favourites. Its not all hunting, but a great read, complete opposite of the Capstick-style bull'n'boasting. He used a 9.3 x 62 for all his hunting IIR.
