Been too many years since a .375 has been in the safe. Time to rectify that..Let’s see what you guys have. Metric guys can play too!

Here's my little custom Mauser in the Wildcat 375/350. Very handy, light, compact rifle that packs a punch. First shot was the bullseye, clicked it up to where I wanted it. Last 2 shots hit a little right, I don't remember my rifles shaking as much as they do now! Using the Barnes 235gr TSX or the Speer 235gr Hot-Cor over IMR4064. Haven't used a chronograph yet, but both shoot very good. While it's a little much for Wisconsin WT deer, hoping to get on a S TX Nilgai hunt with it (not looking for anything about that in this post).

I don’t know how anyone can shoot a group, let alone an animal with a 375. I had never shot one and a friend wanted me to sight his in. On a bench with sandbags it was too brutal for me and he got a 1 shot group…

On a bench with sandbags it was too brutal for me and he got a 1 shot group… The 375 Win isn't bad... after I put a decelerator pad on it. The factory plate kept catching me funny and biting the bejeezus out of my shoulder. Felt recoil is not nearly as harsh as 444 or 45-70 to me.

On a bench with sandbags it was too brutal for me and he got a 1 shot group… I HAVE TOO AGREE , i own a couple of 375 H&H rifles and off the bench they are miserable to shoot , the older i get the more i hate to shoot my bigger cartridges . now days i prefer my 6 BR or my 22 K-Hornet to shoot off the bench . matter fact i am going even quit shooting and hunting my 257 Weatherby much and start using a 257 Roberts more .

At 70, I’m wondering when I’ll reach that point……I hope that it’s not soon! 😉 Though I’ll readily admit that 60 ft/lb from the bench with my 9# 1 oz (scoped, loaded, slung) AI is close to my bench limit! memtb
