From what I have seen on TV and read is does the trick....at least they pull the trigger and the critter ends up dead sooner or later! Looks like a nice little(big) package to me.

I was just going to recommend that!! Keep me updated on it, once my .243 AI gets finished I am planning a 7mm long range rig.

Keep me updated as well. Sounds like it could be real screamer! I do really love my .284s!

A 270gr bullet at 2850fps!! Oh, Lord, my teeth hurt just thinking about dropping the hammer on a .375 Ruger!! Maybe I'm just getting old, but I that doesn't even sound fun to shoot once. But if it'll make you happy...chiropractors have to eat too![8D]

What's your price range and what do you want? I always wanted an original, pre-64 Win M70 in 375 H&H. However, if I was going to get a 375, it would be foolish not to get the 378 Weatherby, right? Why give up several hundred fps, right? Is a 460 Wby too much?

I think I would put a Sako action on a Hart barrel, sink it in a really nice Weatherby stock and chamber it for 378 Wby. I would top it with a Ziess scope in a 3-9 or 10X.

Problem is, I have a lot of other wounds where the money is bleeding from these days

The stainless 375 Alaskan with the Hogue stock sure seems like a dandy. I have handled both the Afican and Alaskan and let me tell they both fitme great. The shallow "V" rear sight and high post front allow for very fast targeting for me anyways. If I didnt already have a Sako 375 H&H I would seriously consider the Alaskan.
