[@thomasarcher4034]

The .375 H&H (and other cartridges of the time) was long and tapered for a good reason. They were loaded with cordite, which was very temperature-sensitive. The long tapered case aided in easy extraction.

Ruger Alaskan originally came with 20" barrel in .375 Ruger - Hogue overmolded stock - great safari rifle.

The ballistician and precision shooter in me likes the 375 Ruger...but honestly, you just can't beat the panache the 375 H&H carries. It's just such an elegant cartridge.

In my opinion the .375 H&H has a certain flair of sophistication to it that no other cartridge has, the .416 Rigby and .300 H&H comes closet to it in my book in that aspect.

375 Ruger is definitely one of the top do it all cartridges ever!! I’ve been in love with it since it came out.. Sadly, my first Rifle I built using a 375 Ruger action on a HS Precision stock was stolen while I was over seas. Now I just finished my second build only its the Savage brush hunter barreled action on an Oryx chassis with a witt machine directional break!! The best part is Lehigh defense offers 185gr, 270gr. Barnes, Hornady, Nosler offer 235,250,260,270, 300, and 350gr options! Now some fun research will show you ballistically the lighter 375 Ruger loads shoot as flat and even flatter than many of what folks consider to be “long range” cartridges.

The M77 Hawkeye African in .375 is not bad on recoil at all. I was really surprised at how mild it was. I guess the radial brake on it works really well.

[@scotteger6271]

The Savage 110 Bear Hunter in .375 Ruger weighs like 8.4lbs, but is meant for a scope. So until you get the round loaded, scope and rings and a sling, you'd probably be at 9lbs or so. Still lighter than the H&H rifles but heavy enough to cut some of the recoil. It also has a removable brake.

I personally don't have a need for that kind of firepower but if I lived in Alaska or something I could see the desire. Recoil is always subjective...I had a friend with a 300 Win Mag that kicked like a mule...actually caused him to have a bad flinch. I got a different 300 Win Mag on trade one time and thought it was going to be miserable. Turned out it recoiled less than a 30-06 I had at the time.

With modern case design and powders do you think it is better to go with a 6.5prc instead of a 7mm rem mag a lower 48 deep, antelope, sheep, black bear, and elk but mainly deer rifle from 0-500 yards?

[@kirkmartin2223]

Go 7mag all day! You will be able to find multiple different types of factory ammunition in most hardware stores and walmart's everywhere. Plus the sectional density is better on the 7mm and if you reload, bullet selection is larger. You will never make a shot with a 7mag and wish you had any 6.5mm.....jmo

[@fivex4756]

Was mentioned but a bit more could have been said of the off spring. The 300 RCM Ruger Conpact Magnum works well in shorter barrels and standard action. The 6.5 PRC designed for and works well with longer bullets and in short action. The 300 PRC also for longer bullets. I have all four. It should always be mentioned the PRCs and some other newer cartridge designs include a longer throat for the longer bullets. I have found getting lighter shorter bullets to perform well in those difficult.

I owned a 375 Ruger in a savage platform with 20" barrel. Recoil was snappy but manageable. Certainly better than my 458 Lott in a heavier gun.

I have a very light Mossberg Patriot in .375 Ruger. It’s a beast. I don’t know if mine would be considered a 600 yard gun, more like maybe 300. The accuracy just isn’t there to push mine further. If one would choose the .375 Ruger or H&H I would suggest using very good rings and not cheap rings. I tried a companies certain cheap rings and the scope kept sliding inside the rings.

[@VortexNation]

Oof - a light 375 Ruger definitely would be punishing. Very correct about the rings too - good quality rings are what hold everything together, so if they're bad, the whole setup will be bad!

[@OldManMontgomery]

When I hear people praise the .30-06 Springfield as the '...father of so many cartridges' I want to point out the 8x57mm gewehr 1888 commission rifle cartridge. (No, it was not designed by Paul Mauser, but he knew a good thing when seen.) That cartridge sired the .30-06 Springfield, which in turn sired a bunch of cartridges including the 7.62x51mm NATO round which sired even more rounds. The .375 H&H is primarily an African use cartridge as there isn't much game in the Americas that require such a massive round. Perhaps some of the really large bears that will eat one if not prudent. I have a Ruger 77 Hawkeye in .375 Ruger. I have done a grand total of ten reloads (all solids) and I have a box of factory ammo but I haven't taken it out and shot it yet. I will use a standing rest, as opposed to a bench rest. And I just don't like belted cases.

[@georgewhitworth9742]

You mean sired the .30-03?

[@georgewhitworth9742]

And I don't see anything about that round siring the .30-06?

[@OldManMontgomery]

@@georgewhitworth9742 That is probably more accurate. Especially for those who know and appreciate the chain of progression. The '03 cartridge did come first in 1903 (imagine!). The 1903 cartridge was identical to the '06 cartridge, save the '06 cartridge was .03 inches shorter to prevent the '03 round from chambering in the new configured chamber. So properly I should have said the 8x57mm round GRANDSIRED the .30-06 Springfield and so on. I shall now go to my room.

In theory this a good idea. However, in the current climate there is no promise you will find .270 Win or .243 or even .308 in any town during hunting season. I personally take steps to avoid this issue ever happening to me. I alway take a backup rifle and ammo. I always pack ammo and hunting tags in my clothes tote with my medications. I always have at least 60-120 rounds of ammo per hunting rifle caliber on hand. I have never suffered one of those terrible moments people talk about happening. Knock on wood. 😂

Another issue. The .375H&H feeds in a Mauser claw extraction action liked greased damned lightning. It is smooth as BUTTER!!!! The Ruger doesn’t even come near the feeding of a well conditioned Mauser in the Holland. Not anywhere near! The Ruger gets you about 150 to maybe 200 FPS longer. However of my 8 trips hunting over on Safari not a single shot taken was more than 180 yards. and I could have easily closed that distance but decided to take a further shot as to not disrupt another Hunter. The additional benefit you didn’t mention is that there is a well known truth that the .30-06 in 180 grain and the .375H&H in 300 have the exact same bullet trajectory. I am. It kidding. They are almost to the inch the same. If you pointed them side by side they would hit almost in sync. It’s that close!!!!!!! That’s a gigantic benefit when you take a two-gun battery over there to hunt plains game with your ‘06 and your H&H for heavy game.

According to Chuck Hawk‘s recoil table, a 375 Ruger weighing 8 ounces less, recoils 27% more than a 375 H&H, shooting a 300 grain projectile at 20 ft./s faster. This is why the 375 Ruger, along with availability of ammunition, is dead on the vine. There is absolutely no advantage to using this caliber, especially since there is only one rifle chambered for this round. Get yourself an M70 Winchester in 375 H&H. End of story.
