[QUOTE="brentc, post: 288623, member: 16938"] The H&H is a classic for many reasons and one of them is that it will deliver a 270-300 grain bullet to it's target with mounds of energy out to 400 yards and they'll do it with surprising accuracy. I know because I've done it with a 375 Ruger African. I've only had the gun for a year and it's killed everything from a large moose out to 400 yards to numerous big black bears at ranges up to 240 yards carrying 3000 ft/lbs of energy. I am very confident with my ability to shoot it, and it is every bit as accurate as anything else in the gun safe. I have had success loading 260 grain Accubonds and I used them last year on my moose. I now use the Barnes TSX 270's and I have never seen a bullet that performs better. The best thing to do is shoot one, see if you like it. If you like it, learn how to shoot it well and then [U]you[/U] decide it's effective range. I'm telling you 300 yards is a chip shot for these bad boys. It doesn't matter whether it's the H&H, Ruger, or the Ultra Mag. I use a traditional sighting method with my 375 in that I go to the field with my scope dialed in with a good point blank range and I hold over for anything past that range. My point blank range with the gun sighted in 3" high at 100 yards has an effective point blank range out to 325 yards in my gun with my loads. [/QUOTE]
