RE: .375 Ruger
I've got a thread going over in the Big Game section on this round.I'm a huge fan of the .338's and will always be.But I'm looking at this rifle as a Med-bore elk rifle.Yes I know it's not needed but it has the potential to be a real killer.You can get all the horse power of the 375 H&H plus some,great trajectory(for a 270 gr bullet),and less recoil of 375 RUM.All of this in short or standard length action.
What I like about this round is it can match the .338 win mags ballistics yet hit harder.Yes I know ther will be recoil,but most of the calculations that I used puts it about 42+ lbs.That is not much if not the same as my 300 RUM in a8 lb rifle.
Come on whats not to like,this could be great med-bore or it could be a big flop.You never know till you try it.
