So that may or many not be an issue with someone..Same applied with the 416 Ruger wildcat I built early on with the Ruger case necked up to .416..I like the 450 gr. Woodleighs a lot, soooooo...

short of that, there ain't hardly any difference in the two for my useage, action length is a non issue with me...

I think the 375 Ruger case is an outstanding development.


Ray, Since the 375 Ruger is a larger case than the H&H I found that it worked fine for the 350 Woodleighs. Although I wasn't all that enamored with the Woodleighs as I have found them too soft for my tastes. but I am anxious to try the new ones with thicker jackets.
