Did you happen to hunt that brown bear with a fella named Bob Coolie? Or maybe Cooley. Not sure how it's spelled.[/quote]

Yes, Bob Couey. And after my bear hunt we went up to his cabin near Lake Louise where I feasted on more blueberries and cought close to 200 graylings.

And for those of you that caught my "700 grain TSX bullets at 3043 fps" typo, thanks, my proof reader has been reprimanded! They were really 300 grain bullets.

No. I bought it here a number of years ago. Factory barrel that was cut and fluted and bedded in what was advertised as a Brown Pound'r. It did unsuccessfully chase brown bear in 2015.

I had a run of 375s a few years ago along with a few other med bores in 35cal. My "BIG GUN" now is a 35Remington. All else is 30cal and under.

This was the last 375 I owned. Sold it after taking it to the Yukon. Shot a couple moose and a caribou with it while I owned it.

If I didn’t already have mine……that’s exactly what I’d get. Run a reamer in it, making it an AI….making me a happy man the rest of my days ! memtb

Run it up, until you blow it up, then back it down a bit.

CZ 550 Safari Magnum in .375 H&H, upgraded by AHR in a B&C stock, topped with a Swarovski Z6i 1-6x24EE CD-i. It will certainly be the very last rifle I ever get rid of. Shot my first cape buffalo, a moose, a handful of plains game with it. It's heading to Zim on backup duty for elephant/hippo this May loaded with CEB 300gr Safari Solids running 2550fps for sub MOA groups, nicely paired with the corresponding 275gr thick-skin Safari Raptors.

Great looking rifle, but the front sight fell off. What velocities do you get with 270s and 300s with with the .375/338?

I ran into you at Mark Demlow's "Illiaska" lodge in Iliamna. I was up there guiding for bear and was between hunts. Nice to see a picture of your bear!
