Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Elk Hunting Favorite .375 H&H factory or handloads for elk out to 400 or so?

My .375 is of the Ruger variety, rifle is the Hawkeye African, with a 23" barrel. I handload the 250 gr. Barnes TTSX bullet for it, with a MV of 2880 fps. Shoots very accurately out of my rifle.

If I were thinking of possible shots in excess of 300 yards, I would be mounting up a Leupold VX3 2.5-8 with CDS, to take the guesswork out of bullet drop at longer ranges.
