Moderate .375 H&H loads your experience?

I ended up settling on the 270 Hornady round nose, 60 grains of IMR3031, CCI250 primer, Rem/Fed/Win brass ( all are the same weight) for 2410 fps and 1.5" 100 yard groups out of my Sako AV. Pretty much exactly what I was looking for.

I have basically duplicated my .35 Whelen when it is loaded with stiff hand loads, which is one of my favourites for elk and moose around home. And I can still load 300 grain bullets at 2500 if I need more thump for Buffalo on my next safari. Bonus is that both loads shoot to pretty much the same POI at 100 yards.

I'm liking the .375 more and more as I gain experience.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
