[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 1250287, member: 22069"] I believe it would be worthwhile for you to carefully consider what you want your rifle to do and work backwards from there in planning your build. I don't believe you will gain much from a 28" barrel with the 375 Ruger. The case capacity just isn't there to take advantage of the barrel length. It would also be well for you to consider that the long range 375 bullets currently in development are expected to be 350 grains and heavier. If you have interest in shooting those bullets, you may wish to consider going with a larger case, and perhaps, a rifling twist that is even faster than 1/10. Otherwise, an off-the-shelf 375 Ruger may not be a bad choice. With the right powders and bullets, you might be surprised at what it will do. [/QUOTE]
