Anyone shooting a .375 RUM long range?
Just wondering what sort of rig you are running?

Also what load and velocity you are getting?

Should put a big hole in an animal!
 
I consider it a good medium range gun. The best thing it is good for is knocking the snot out of you. I have one in an XCR im a big guy and its a punisher. I probably wouldnt buy another. To answer your question no i dont think its a good long range gun. put a 338rum barrel on it

I am. I run one with a 30" pacnor 1:10 barrel. I run the 270lrx at 3015fps for hunting. It shoots very very well and anchors anything that moves like lightning hit it.

I think a Groundhog at 75-80 yds. would be in serious trouble!

Seriously, it sounds like a serious set up for sure. Do you use a brake?
