Has any one loaded the .375 win using speer 185 gr. points ?

Didn't know Speer made a 185 in .375. They make a 235 and a 285 .. did you mean one of those? Or post a link so I can read up? Thanks!

Boy do I feel stupid - more so the usual !
The speer bullets I have are .358 not 375
Oh well conceder the source

pdhunter, you need a 358!

Then you do not have 185 grain but 180 gr LOL

I have loaded the 180 grain Speer flatpoint in the 35 Rem, 356 Win, and 358 Win and think that it is an excellent whitetail bullet in those rather "mild" 0.358" bore cartridges.

When I first had a 356, I shot 1 whitetail doe with the 220 grain Speer flatpoint and it went through like it was a solid or fmj. I then loaded up some of the 180 grain Speer flatpoints and shot another whitetail doe, this was during our December-January late antlerless season, that resulted in one of the quickest bang-flop kills I've experienced.

I shot cast out of my .375 Win Ruger #3, and it shot well.

If your not pushing them too hard you can reform 30-30 brass for your cast loads. 375 Win brass is not common up here.

I only used 375 win brass when I did shoot 225gr Hornadys.
