[QUOTE="snake, post: 443456, member: 25557"] Darrin, I've got a 375 RUM as well and have the 350gr smks. Have not loaded with em' yet and there is a lack of info for this loading. Most of these guys use improved versions/weatherby or cheytac wildcats to get 2800fps +. I would like to start slow and work up but I have literally no time and no chornograph to tell what speeds im running. I would love to post some results soon but no chorno yet. Im not gonna develop a load for this until I buy a chonograph. I think with a 350gr smk Retumbo or H1000 would be best to move the heavy bullet. Out of a 26" pipe 2550 to 2600fps might possibly be max velocity. I DON'T KNOW,haven't tried or confirmed by anyones posts anywhere! a 30" tube might get 100fps more. By no means this is NOT an [B]extreme[/B] long range shooter...but it will be a long range shooter. IMHO the only advantage over a 338rum/Edge or Lapua chambered round is that the 375 RUM has 50grs more weight and a smidge larger. [/QUOTE]
