Rule 303
AH elite
I would buy any factory ammo with 300 Woodleigh soft points. For solids any with a flat metplate. I reload so use Woodleigh hydrostatic projectiles.
I am curious, have you been able to compare the hydros to the 350 gr Woodleighs? I am trying to figure out if the large bullet still adds something to the 375 that the hydro doesn't.I would buy any factory ammo with 300 Woodleigh soft points. For solids any with a flat metplate.

You'll love the fast target acquisition of the fire dot. I hunted in the RSA with a VX-6 2x12 with a fire dot a couple of years ago. In many cases shots must be made quickly for success. I was able to target and cleanly take a Warthog in about 5 seconds. That red dot shows well against animal hide colors. Post some groups you get from that Kimber, its a nice looking rifle. I have hunted with a Kimber Montana 300 WSM for about 10 years.After speaking with some guys who have hunted leopard and buff, it was suggested by a few of them to get a red dot scope of some sort, at least one that has the option to turn a red dot on. So, that sounded like good advice to me, especially since I plan on hunting leopard at some point as well. So, I went with a Leupold fire dot in 2x7x33
I would be curious about the 350 grain bullets for buffalo as well, but if your going to hunt PG on the same trip, I would stick with 300 grain bullets. My 375 H&H loves Federal Premium 300 grain Trophy Bonded Bear Claws. However I found Remington Premium loads with 300 grain Swift A Frames to regulate closer to Woodliegh Hydro Solids loaded in Federal Premium line. Nothing against other brands (other than Hornady DGS and DGX, great practice fodder), but these are what I found available and priced fair.
I'm running Buckeye Tactical's stainless picatinny lows on a 2 piece low base. The stock I have is designed to provide a low eye position when you have a proper cheek weld. Mainly to support using open sights as well as a scope. I had a 20 MOA base on it for a while but find the lower setup more comfortable to shoot.Guys,
I have a Leupold scope to mount on my .375, what are you guys using for scope rings on your .375's. Just want to make sure I get something the first time that will hold up to the .375
Thanks
