[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 984385, member: 30671"] Interesting project. What a person wants is what a person wants, but may I ask how you arrived at this particular cartridge? I just looked at some loads, and you could likely buy a .375 Ruger, get better velocity, factory ammo, more current load data, and have about the same invested. I've had my wild hairs, and understand. But if your serious about LRH with a .375 you will end up at the RUM or bigger case. The kids had a book "If you give a mouse a cookie...He's going to want a glass of milk". My guess is this is how the project will fare. I think most of us ease into the .375 calibers as we don't know what to expect, and half of what we read is not accurate. I've enjoyed .375's, from the .375 Winchester to the Weatherby. It's tough to beat the standard H&H for a short to medium range big game rifle, but to stretch the yardage better choices are available. Anyway, it's your project, and I'd like to hear more about it.
