Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Express Rifles and Big Bores Only Why is the 375 H&H.

Never found the top? Please keep trying and report back. Should be viRY Intro.>> My dog just dug up an ammo box full of 275gr Speer and I send you 200 to continue your experiments. I suggest 150-200 grains of Norma R-1. Should be able to get 4500 fps with the load>> ENJ0y>>

Quite right>>

I can think of ONE> I wish would, but I am not that lucky>>>>

MoRe please>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

So let me see if I have this right; you believe everything you read in the OP and not the reason he states? Shrewd>>> VurY Intro.>>>> ENJoy>>>

bcd - I believe some people on this forum are exactly that stupid>>>>

Let's just all put him on ignore instead of feeding the troll. And please stop quoting his drivel so we don't have to see it second hand. Thanks

Aside from all the juvenile silliness rampant in this thread, I have some questions. The .375 H&H is a favorite of mine. Thus .....
About the comment "most downloaded" .....where did that data come from? Who said that it is, next to the Rigby (another favorite)?
Load data......80 grs. of 4350.,,and a 300 grain bullet. That is over the max or every published load that I have seen. Where did that data originate?
Also....76 grs is listed as a compressed charge......I have never been able to get even that much in a case without some serious crunching at the end, even with a long drop tube. How do you fit 80 grains in? Velocity for the 76c charge is listed as under 2500 fps. There was mention of 2700...... Was that a joke?

Number 1, look at bcd's other posts and you can see it all rather clearly - he left the reservation a LONG time ago.

Number 2, I bet it would take an awfully fast 26" barrel to get close to that number.

Number 3, I would also wager a 300 grain bullet of a decent construction, whiffling along at 24-2500 fps, would darned near work on darned near anything you'd care to shoot.

I take it that English is not the first language? Related to KAWI?

80g of imr 4350 and a 300g bullet out of the old brno is like having a nice cup of Joe. Then we should if we will take it up to 84gs. never enlarged pockets blown primers and o that easy extraction!Enjoy

Some men Buy Guns and then some buy a real Guns!Enjoy.

Have I gone higher only my hair dresser know!Enjoy.

PeteD" once you understand, you will go much Higher then the Man tells You.Enjoy But if you have a short [bleep] action that most Have Enjoy.

Is it possible to be more cryptic? That is as much a non-answer as I have ever read.
My question is not about safe loads....it is about the practical reality of putting powder into a case.
76 grains is a compressed load. You now mention 84. How does one get 84 grains of 4350 into a 375 H&H case without damaging the case?
How do you go about this?

Pete

84 gr. IMR 4350/.300 gr. NPT/.375 H&H is 116% of case capacity and will yield 87879 PSI from QL.

waaaayyy too hot. only an idiot like bcd goes there

Safe ?

.....It's a shame BCS's daddy didn't wear one.

GTC

Maybe he loaded the 375 Ruger the same way, if he was loading the 375 ruger to 90K and 116 of case capacity it might explain the stiff bolt opening.

Sorry, but why don't the mods F*$k this idiot off for the sake of the forum and safety?

I can see 80gr being alright i found a old imr powder manual http://www.imrpowder.com/pdf/IMR_rifle.pdf that has imr4350 max at 78gr. the only way i see 84gr is if the c.o.a.l was left long, but i'm with the rest of you on the pressure would be on the really high end.
