I have a very similar Whitworth Express rifle in .375, made by Zastava for Whitworth and imported by Interarms, probably from the 1970s. Bought it used for $250 in California in 1993 and it's beautiful. It came with a Weaver K1.5, fixed 1x scope, common for the time for dangerous game like Grizzly in the brush. Sort of the 1960s/70s era equivalent of the red-dot.

I traded my 300 Win mag for a 375 H+H Magnum Win. Model 70 stainless pre 64 bolt and I use it for moose, and it drops them fast love it. The kick is way less than a 300 win just a pleasure to shoot 🙂You can buy bullets for it as low as 200 grains 🙂

I wouldn't say my .375 kicks less than a .300, but it's certainly not as sharp. More of a long, hard shove than a quick hard punch. They both let you onow they're there though.

Good video Ron. The only gripe I have is this: Years ago, the .30-30 winchester used to be sufficient for whitetailed deer as well as mule deer. Then, out came the .30-378 Weatherby. It seems as though animals are becoming increasingly bullet resistant as the years pass by. If I were you, I’d probably take a .600 Nitro Express to Africa as the .375 H&H bullets might bounce off of a buffalo…

I am an absolute fan of Mauser actions and own many of them up to caliber .416, but when it comes to really dangerous, close-up situations, nothing beats a double rifle. If, at close range, the first shot is not an instant kill, there is no time to throw that bolt for a follow up shot in a serious and fast charge. For the guided hunter it is absolutely the best choice, for the back-up guy speak PH the double is hard to trump.
@mtkoslowski
@mtkoslowski 4 ай бұрын
@@stefanschug5490 Your comment makes a lot of sense. There are those, if they can afford it, who insist on a good double for dangerous game in Africa. Your argument is sensible. However… most double rifles use Express sights while a very few can accommodate a scope and are useful if properly regulated. The double rifle’s claim to fame is ONLY the fastest follow up shot, and if it has ejectors can be reloaded reasonably quickly if you hold two rounds in the off hand. I gave all this some thought and decided on a bolt Mauser action with a 4 round capacity and a sensibly mounted 1.5 - 5 scope for my aging eyes. The action on my rifle has never ever jammed and I truly value the 4 rounds (serially) immediately available. Doubles are part of the African hunting romance and mystique of the likes of Hemingway, Ruark, Manners and Capstick. If you give me one I’ll gratefully accept it but will likely never use it. Your mileage may vary.

Old codger here; if I may be so bold; if you would hang that sling on the other shoulder, butt up, muzzle down, with left hand in position you could be a quick draw magaw. The left hand never comes off the stock, the elbow catches the sling as the butt-stock swings into the left shoulder ready to fire. Quick, easy, accurate sling support. Try it, you'll never go back to carrying the rain gauge that fights with trees and bushes.

I have the Safari Express in .458 Win. Besides a nicer looking piece of walnut on the Parkwest I don't see how the price difference is justified. My .458 clover leafs at 100 yards and the Parkwest looks like they really over complicated the bolt release from the simple Model 70 release. Great looking rifle but I am totally satisfied with my Safari Express. Maybe I'll grab one on .375 if I see one.

Money wise, a Parkwest is better investment. If taken good care of it would be worth a lot of money someday. But if you aren’t looking for the ability to make coin on a rifle that is used but not abused it’s a good investment. Yet if you want to treat a rifle how I treat my rifle, probably a bad idea. A safari grade model 70 is probably a good compromise, especially if a good smith tunes and tries her up a lil.

Hi Ron Great intro video to this. The evocative sounds of the African Fish Eagle in the background was absolutely fantastic, makes me so nostalgic. Glad to see that all is forgiven with the 375 H&H, esp after your blog 3 or 4 years ago and the video comparing the 375 to the 338 win mag more recently 😅 I suspect, as you suggested back then, the the bullet choice was a factor. Please can we get as lot more detail on the Hammer Shock copper bullets that you have had such great success with on this trip. And at some point, can you compare a 375 Hammer to a 338 hammer? What variations are available? And maybe compare to the Hornady CX and Barnes TSX etc. These new copper bullet designs are opening up completely new possibilities and thought processes.

Nice rifle Ron, however, did I hear you say "you don't feel any recoil"? In a .375 African loaded rifle? ER, UH, LOL, well I'm 6'3, about 265 and I feel LOTS of recoil out of my personal .375's, Both Sako's, one a true "long gun", the other a much handier , shorter barreled, non scoped mannlicher for up close and personal dangerous game. Over the years that I've owned them, (over a half century now) I've grown quite fond of them, so not likely to trade you for that Dakota bred one ;) One other thing, apparently like yourself, I can't remember EVER feeling "under gunned" with the .375 s :) Thumb's up:)

I agree, when you load them close to maximum with 300 grain Barnes XTP driven by 70 grain of Reloader 15, you certainly feel the recoil. I get additional powder capacity and higher speeds, since my rifle is not limited by the magazine length of most bolt actions.

There are two reasons; 1 the rifle hangs lower on the shoulder and is less likely to get caught on low hanging brush/limbs. 2 with the sling mount on the barrel you're less likely to bash your supporting hand's finger with a sling swivel stud when gripping the forend of the rifle.

Every extra dollar I had went into paying off the land so that we did not still have a mortgage to pay at retirement and saving for retirement. Most young people don't have that discipline.

His response to people that wanted less expensive ones was always to shop for rifles off the shelf like CZ, Ruger, Winchester or Sako.

Nothing wrong with getting paid to endorse a company! I mean who would reject getting paid and most likely receiving a free gun for your efforts!

@@johnkertzman3223 nothing wrong with getting paid to give a favorable review, unless you are pretending the review is completely unbiased. If I know Ron is being paid by the manufacturer to give a good review of a product, I would not take his word for how good the product will perform because his opinion is prejudiced.

375 h&h would be better if it was necked down to 7.21mm and the case shortened a bit to say 63mm. Maybe trim the belt off the case and case head down to .473". That would be a hell of a cartridge. Call it the 7.21 lazz micro magnum.

Kind of sad you have to explain the point of a classic bolt action hunting rifle. Nice looking rifle for sure but is it really several thousands of dollars better than a Winchester Model 70 Safari Express?

By machining standards today, and typical range of those hunts, it really wouldn’t be much better than a Savage Axis in 375H&H. I buy the pretty guns and whatnot too so I can’t throw stones. But my brother-in-Law’s $250 savage axis with stock scope in .30-06 made the deer exactly as dead as my 1950 Model 70 with a Leupold also in .30-06. My photos looked WAY better though

@@johnkertzman3223 apples and apples, again. And no one, let alone Ron Spomer, has answered WHY this gun is worth thousands more the a Model 70. It isn't a car. It isn't a yacht. If I spent a couple grand on a custom stock for the Model 70 how is this other rifle superior? Does it feed, fire, extract and eject better?

Try finding one. I agree with you to a point. I had a lot of Winchester M-70s. Some needed some tweaking; one had a crooked chamber, and another had a barrel so galled that it fouled severely. You do get what you pay for. I have a Dakota 76 in 270 that I snagged for around 1500 dollars, but that was in 1994. Inflation has been hitting things pretty hard. Good craftsmen need to make a living, too. 12K seems like a lot, but is it really? I was looking at a Tikka T-3 in 7mm RM the other day- 2200 on the tag. I love Sako Rifes; there is a bit of sticker shock with them, too, these days.
