[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 818610, member: 22069"] [b]Re: building a 375 h&h[/b] Yes, I have fired factory ammo through my rifle and yes, I own a .375 H&H, which I have fired the referenced Hodgdon load through. I quoted the Hodgdon load for two reasons: 1) It has been the basis of experimentation that I have done (You know this. We have had a pretty good conversation regarding my efforts along those lines.). 2) To demonstrate that, when I used this same load data with a LONGER COAL, there is no way that I am pushing pressures or "hot rodding" with said load. In that context, the "apples and grapefruit" statement is nonsensical. You [B]DID[/B] read the [B]ENTIRE[/B] thread, right? My rationale for saying factory rounds are underloaded has been clearly laid out and the data speaks for itself. Relative to its potential, yes I believe the .375 H&H is underloaded by the factory. I understand why that is and I have stated as much. Bottom line here is that people can have opinions all day long. No opinion trumps hard data to the contrary. [/QUOTE]
