[QUOTE="436, post: 322034, member: 16609"] I'd have to go with the last reply (JE's)... your not going to gain much after 26" inch in a .375 cal rifle. Even if you made it a little longer {an of course larger diameter} and experemented with different powder(s); you'd hit a dead end. Most the .375 H&H's I've owned in my life time; pretty much gave everything they had in 22" inches with a little gain in the 24" inch barrel depending on, bullet, powder and how daring I wanted to get. So 26" perhaps 28" would be the max I'm sure. A really shout load, 26" inch long barrel, with a little more free bore might get you those velocity's you want; what ever they are. 436 [/QUOTE]
