That Mauser is pretty.

I really like my 'almost like new' condition pre-64 375 H&H AI. I expected it to be tough on the shoulder, when I bought it. But that is not the case! Maybe because the hottest load for the 300 grain bullets so far are about 2700 fps and the hottest 270 grain loads are 2,900 fps. The Winchester stock fits me perfectly, - it's just a fine all around rifle for me. I have planned on testing with 235 through 300 grain bullets, and have started, I've noticed that top loads are all over the map - on "Load Data".

I'm expecting to get 2,800 fps with 300 grain and 3,000 fps with 270 grain. Not sure what the 235 grain Speer would do, maybe 3,100 fps, a varmint load maybe...


I prefer classic.
