Default RE: 375-Ruger

The rifles are out ($850 and up on Gunsamerica), I have had mine several months. Although Midway has loaded ammunition, I imagine it will be quite some time before cases will be available in bulk.

At about $900, I thought the rifle was a steal. I would characterize the "new" trigger as excellent. I have put two boxes through it and think it is a great cartridge. Ruger finally found a decent recoil pad. I was shooting my .45-70 GG at the same time and can onlydescribe the recoil of the Ruger as "ALOT less" than the .45-70. I was shooting Rem 405 JSPs with 53 gr of 3031.

The prices on Hornady ammunition is very close to the H&H, so it doesn't appear they are gouging more for the 375 Ruger than any other ammunition.

I am planning on using the rifle for elk later this year with some bullet (probably the triple shock) in 270 gr. I am just waiting for RCBS to come out with dies...

Good luck,
CE
