Anyone out there use a 375 H&H with cast bullets for game?

nope but I did run into a problem loading round nose projectiles. Every one sticks in the die. Any suggestions other than buying a new stem plug?

The only time I have ever had that happen, I discovered that my bullet was .379 diameter. It was an old Loverin design for the 38-72 and it would stick in the seating die.
<br>
<br>what diameter are your cast bullets?

First ( and I'am "stick'n my nose in") go to a flat point bullet for hunting purposes. But on the sticking issue; I had it happen years ago with another caliber, and partially filled the seating punch with lead. It wasn't the "prettiest" thing to look at, but stopped the sticking! -memtb

ok so maybe it's not kosher, but a dab of super glue and 3 pieces of #2 shot in the seating stem hole makes it all work just fine :o)
