Default RE: New Scope for .375H&H...



" Edit-Even If your zeroed at 200 yards, you are going to drop almost 3 feet at 400 yards. You better spend some money on ammo and practice a chit ton if you are going to pull off that shot! I don't care how much velocity and power you think you have! "

Thats why a compitent shooter spends the extra $$ for a good scope with Target knobs. Know the BC of the bullet, the FPS and a 100 yard zero. Plug it into a ballistics program dial in the elevation, 300 yards is now a chip shot. At a 1000 yards a 300 WSM shooting a 210 Berger drops @250" In the right hands you can group 10 shots under 8" the real good shooters are putting 10 shots in the 5" range. I can't imagine a 375 H&H isn't acurate enough to pull of a great group at 300 yards. Mine certainly used too!!
