I like a .375 class rifle to have a bit more weight to it and the M700s that I have shot in .375 seem to have more muzzle rise than I like due to their weight. Just my preference, but I like the M70 Winchesters better in .375. I have several M700, so I don't have a problem with them overall.

Luv2safari.....I never get tired of looking at that .375 Weatherby of yours. Super nice!

I have yet to own a .375 of any sort yet. However I own one of the important parts...the action. Late model FN barreled action in .300 Win Mag. Probably get some Wiebe bottom metal and a Mcm glass stock. Barrel....not sure yet. It will be chambered in .375 Ruger. Soon.

I chose the H&H variety in a CZ because of its historical provenance. I shoot 270gr TSX and 300 Barnes banded solids at factory velocities. They do the job, I enjoy shooting the rifle and both rounds impact within .5 inch at 50m open sites.

I have no glass on the rifle because it is set up as a DGR. I do not intend on shooting it past 200 yds ever, and indeed at that range 6" is all I can get on a good day anyway. Fill your boots with your "flat shooting" 375 rifles, that is valid for you. As for me and my house, we choose to use it close and personal.

Have to go with the H&H. Have owned 3 and wish I still had them all. First was Whitworth Express Rifle, then Rem 700 Classic, and now a Pre 64 M70 that has had some custom work on it. Will say the Model 70 kicks like a mule compared to the other two.....course I'm a few years longer in the teeth, too...

I have a ZKK-602 rechambered to .375 Weatherby. Seemed like a good idea since I could use two cartridges in the same rifle.

.375 Winchester lever gun with long barrel. I don't see much need for anything over 250gr at about 1850fps.
