Looks impressive.

What action houses that cartridge?




The 280 Remington is overbore.

The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.

While I have no use for a cartridge that large - I have to say I love the font on your print for "375 Warlord"

It looks like an old Winchester Silvertip to me.

So you took Lethal Precision Firearms photos and used them? The 375 Lethal Magnum won the recent King of the 2 Mile shoot with a 400 grain Berger bullet.
http://www.lethalprecisionarms.com/home.html
The brass is Ed Hubel's 585he. It has 190 grn powder capacity and delivers the 400 grain bullet at 3100 FPS. LPF is working very closely with Bryan Litz and Applied Ballistics.

Now, where does the Warlord fit in?

the big Chey Tac actions are good to go, the 375 Warlord works on the same boltface as the 408 CheyTac based cartridges ....

The 375 Warlord is the original 375/585 HE Improved , I developed it nearly 3 years before the Lethal Mag hit the scene, I took those photos of the 375 Warlord myself several years ago, the 375 Lethal Mag did not appear until the spring of 2016 and Mitch went on to win the KO2M shoot with it, proving that big magnums with big heavy bullets are very accurate and can be shot with extreme precision ,

Dimensionally they are very similar, minor differences since both wildcats are of the "improved" version for max capacity gain, there is only so much you can blow out a case, no clue what Mitch went with but the 375 Warlord has .025" taper from top of belt to neck/shoulder junction for easy extraction and a 37 degree shoulder angle, it does not headspace on the belt but on the shoulder, they are ballistically identical since case capacities are similar ...... both use same source for parent brass cases except the 375 Warlord design can also use the beltless 375 CheyTac long cases, trimmed a bit and fireformed .....

The only other difference is that the 375 Lethal Mag can only be had if they build you a complete rifle .... Which puts it out of reach of many shooters who wish to get one ...... The 375 Warlord on the other hand is available to everyone on the planet ...... Anybody can call up JGS and order a reamer and build a 375 Warlord with their chosen parts and gunsmith of their choosing, this was the original intent of the 375 Warlord, access to a super magnum ELR capable cartridge that exceeds the 375 CheyTac and 375 SnipeTac cartridges , I made that promise several years ago and now it is delivered

If that is the case I'm OK with it. I just don't like people taking advantage of a friend or acquaintance. JGS would be a better place than PT&G at the present. I do have a hand full of brass coming from Ed to play with.

JGS have the most recent updated print for the 375 Warlord and I just got off the phone with them, I 100% released it for public use and reamer prints can be had by request, PT&G have my print from the summer of 2015 and it needs to be updated, as I have made some dimensional changes for positive extraction by adding some case taper, waiting on a call from Kiff to update that print and make sure the 375 Warlord has a standardized reamer to avoid problems ....... also sending prints to Manson in the event some shooters prefer reamers made by Dave Manson .....

Ed Hubel is sending me 1000 pcs of brass to form up with my case forming dies to provide some brass initially and then he will have his own set of dies to crank out as much cases as needed to supply those who build the 375 Warlord

Dave Manson makes great reamers, just way behind. I'm trying to locate my old case forming dies for the large cases. Seems you loan them out and they in turn loan them out. Trying to help Ed.

Hahaha, well I'm glad someone noticed the font !
I saved the QD print then opened it in "Paint" on my 'puter to add the info text and the name , took me over an hour to sample all the available fonts and the "Algerian" font seemed to stand out most
