Hello from Montana

Welcome to AH.
In the .375 try WW748 powder with a 300gr Barnes TSX. Start with 70gr and work up To 75gr.
I think you need to upgrade to a .700 NE for prairie dogs. There was something left.
I'm kicking around building a 500A2 or 550 mag, a 12 ga from hell, and I would love to get my hands on a full weight 4 bore rifle
 
I've been around here for a few months now, figured I should make an account and ask some questions. I'm from north central Montana, and like big guns. I hunt gophers mostly, and do a little elk hunting in the fall. One of these years I will get to Africa but it might be a while. My favorite rifles, other than the next one, would be my model 70, 375 H&H, and a 600 nitro made by Little Sharps Rifle company of Big Sandy Mt. If you have some reload data for both those rounds I would love to hear it.

Welcome to AH from rural Idaho. I’m sure you will find the answers you need here. Enjoy! Sue Tidwell
 
Good day! Welcome!!
 
Maybe we'll run into each other some time. I'm formerly a resident of Chinook having grown up on the West Side. I'm back to the Hi Line every fall to hunt birds and deer.

Welcome from West Texas…Montana is a wonderful state & consider it my second home. I hope to hunt there soon, wolves & upland game…after Africa, of course! Good luck with your venture to the dark continent.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...
Behind the scenes of taking that perfect picture.....

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris
