anyone use a 375 cal rifle for long range hunting and what bullet? how does the wind drift compare to the 338 cal?
Yeah, somewhat long-range many years ago, at that time the only bullet readily available to do it was Sierra 300gr SP BT that would reliable carry the energy, I think it was moving at little over 2600 FPS in my rifle which gave it something over 1600 FPE at 600 yards, and yes it was quite easy to connect at that range. I used an older now; Whitworth Mark X at the time an amazingly accurate rifle. I think about 600 yards or so yards the .300gr in the 375 H&H stays in the game, but let's face it... the B.C & Vel's are most likely in favor of the .338 when going out there deep.
