[QUOTE="ofbandg, post: 1488926, member: 91402"] I purchased a Remington stainless in .375 H&H twenty-five years ago and it has been my go to rifle for all my northern hunts. Have used it on both grizzly and moose and found it very effective. The Remington is slim and fits very well and is a pleasure to carry compared to many other heavy calibers. Believe it or not the recoil isn't too bad. I also have a .338 Win Mag Browning I take along as a backup rifle and I noticed that they kick about the same which could be because they use about the same amount of powder for the same weight bullets. I prefer the .375 because of the case taper makes feeding and extraction smoother and when grizzly hunting that is an important factor. As for long range, with a GMX 250 grain I can get over 2900 fps which gives it comparable trajectory to a 7 mag with 160 grain bullets. Moose are a big target and my hunting partners and I regular take them beyond 400 yards. My usual load is either the 250 grain Swift or the 235 grain Barnes and both are very effective out to 300 yards and probably beyond. The only powder I have ever used is Reloader 15 because it has done it all. [/QUOTE]
