375 ruger discontinued

Scott Rupp gets a chance to talk to Aaron Oelger about a few new products from Hodgdon and why reloading store shelves are empty. Now if it does go away I have brass! A main strength of these cartridges are in their ability to produce optimal performance in long actions which lack generous magazine lengths. While the .375 H&H Magnum is longer than the .375 Ruger, the latter cartridge has a 4% greater case capacity than the Holland & Holland cartridge, 99 gr. bullets with express sights and hitting a 12"x12" steel gong at 100yds. Thanks, Art & Dan for the heads up! Therefore to say that the Sierra can expand at 1600fps only relays a part of the picture, especially when its expansion is both limited and very much reliant on some degree of resistance (shoulder muscles and bone) in order to be at least partially effective. To say that performance was spectacular is an understatement. Apart from this the Sierra has great merit. Much like a shortened version of the .375 RUM case design and similar to the .375 Dakota depending upon how one looks at it, Ruger, created a very potent .375 cartridge. I have always liked 375 cartridges, the H&H was my prior favorite. Last year Ruger introduced two rifles for its new .375 Ruger cartridge. Joined: Feb 2001. The 300 grain Sierra Gameking was, to use Sierras words, designed for large thin skinned African game such as Greater kudu and Eland along with large North American Game including moose and Brown bear. Since 1912 the .375 H&H has provided one of the finest one-rifle safari batteries available, and in a shorter, lighter, handier rifle with a .30-06-length action the .375 Ruger will do the same. In my experience the larger the animal, the more we need to get up to or above 300 grains bullet weight simply for the sake of energy. But for someone who wants a no-nonsense cartridge in an affordable rifle, the .375 Ruger in the Hawkeye rifle makes a great choice. Even with protection, by standers can receive a hefty blast. But, it eventually rose to the top, and not just among African hunters. Unlike Remington Ultra Magnum cartridges, the Ruger Magnums can be chambered in standard-length bolt-action rifles. The Outfitter load features a 250-grain GMX (a lead-free choice), at a muzzle velocity of 2800 fps and will give a trajectory much like a .308 Winchester with a 180-grain bullet; with a 200-yard zero, itll strike eight inches low at 300 yards and 23 inches low at 400 yards. Like the .376 Steyr that originates from the 9.364mm Brenneke and the .375 Dakota proprietary cartridge that originates from the .404 Jeffery, the .375 Ruger was designed to compete with the .375 H&H Magnum, yet have the advantage of having a rimless, beltless case and can function through a standard-length bolt-action rifle due to a shorter overall length. RifleShooter Magazine editor Scott Rupp breaks down all the features of the Mossberg Patriot Predator rifle chambered in 6.5 PRC. I must be a retro sort of guy; I was extremely excited about the first American rifle and load for the .450/.400-3 inch (.400 Jeffery) that I carried, and I wasn't in the least jealous that Steve carried the first M77 Ruger in .375 Ruger. The .338 Ruger Compact Magnum or .338 RCM is a rimless, short-length rifle cartridge based on the .375 Ruger case. As Ruger intended the cartridge to be chambered in standard-length bolt-action rifles,[2] the case length was kept to 2.580in (65.5mm), which is only .04in (1.0mm) longer than the .270 Winchester case. It starts with a very clever case, a straight, unbelted case with exactly the same .532-inch rim as the .375 H&H. Since it is a rimless, unbelted case that doesn't "step down" in front of the belt, it is thus a . As with most medium bores the .375 Ruger produces best results across all bullet weights with powders in the IMR / H 4350 range, though the faster Varget burn rate can work very well with light weight bullets. This projectile can tackle heavy game, but here is where we can also run into trouble. From a muzzle velocity of 2950fps the Sierra kills with style out to ranges of around 170 yards (2200fps), thereafter producing clean but sometimes delayed kills out to 270 yards (1800fps). Anyone who has used Russian made steel jacketed soft point ammunition (often found in .223 and .308) will have at least some experience of how such ammunition can perform. Pintoguy is correct, Howa no longer lists the 375 Ruger, so they are hard to find. Both of the Gameking bullets are designed to be used in an all-round manner (close and extended ranges). I certainly hope it is here to stay. We got on that herd in late afternoon, with very little time for finesse. Of the premium middle weight projectiles there are several which can be put to use in the .375 Ruger to good effect. The .375 Ruger is actually capable of generating higher velocities than the H&H, by roughly 100 fps in a 24-inch barrel. This combined with very select shot placement, keeping shots well forwards on the shoulder, can allow us to drop very large animals in their tracks. Doubtful given the 375 H&H in a standard length can be bought and does all that is needed of a .375. Anything anybody needed in a .375-caliber cartridge was done in by Holland and Holland in 1912, right? If I was forced to chooseand thank Heaven that I am notjust one bore diameter to cover the entire range of the worlds big game, it would have to be the .375-inch bore diameter. Those hunting the wilds of India, Australia, Canada and the United States all were well-served by the .375 H&H. Both the African and Alaskan weighed around 9.5lb (4.25kg) with scope and sling which is to be considered light for a potent medium bore. From a very mild muzzle velocity of 2750fps, its soft front core ensures full energy transfer out to a range of around 200 yards or 2200fps. This is one of the great virtues of the medium bores and why it is such a shame when hunters label them as being suitable for big game only. At this time of writing there are now many buzz words used to label and describe bullets that are designed to enhance hydraulic action. It burns powder more efficiently, producing higher velocities in a shorter barrel. Calling and shooting predators is one of the things that helps hunters get from the end of the fall seasons to when the turkeys start gobbling. The .375 Ruger was designed to replace the much older .375 H&H, something it failed to do, largely because of the legendary appeal of the H&H due to its time in Africa. Introduced in 1965 with the .444 Marlin cartridge, the Model 444 was the most powerful lever action of its day. The case is of a rimless design having the base and rim diameter of .532in (13.5mm), which is the same diameter of the belt on belted magnum cases based on the .300 H&H Magnum and .375 H&H Magnum. The 375 H&H and 375 Ruger probably contributed somewhat to the sales decline of new Remy 375 RUMs. At impact velocities of 2600fps or slower neither can be called emphatic. The Hornady bullets--on this hunt, fast 270-grain Interlocks and deep-penetrating 300-grain FMJs--performed perfectly, and thus the cartridge did as well. Can Coolers | An Official Journal Of The NRA, Find More Great NRA Publications Perfect For Every Interest, Discover Everything That The NRA Has To Offer. This now discontinued Marinecoat and laminated stocked Patriot in .375 Ruger was the ideal rifle for coastal bear hunting on Vancouver Island. Instead, I simply see them as being more useful on game weighing around or more than 450kg (1000lb) where angling shots are expected or where there is a chance of having to tackle animals of exceptional size for their species. Suggested sight settings and bullet paths. A new wrinkle on the Ruger M77 in .375 Ruger is this sturdy, visible fixed-blade rear sight, a vast improvement over the folding-leaf sight long supplied on the M77 Mk II. If you do not truly love shooting these big guns and challenging yourself dont put animals through your ignorance. The goal was to create a shorter cartridge than the big .338 magnums that would fit in a more compact rifle with nearly the same performance. And lastly, the duo of Hornadys 300-grain DGX Bonded and DGS Solid, at a muzzle velocity of 2660 fps for 4,713 ft.-lbs. The 270 grain Speer BTSP is a soft bullet designed for large thin-skinned game. In any case, leave it to the reader to experiment and decide which methods and materials prove best for his or her individual situation. Between 2200 and 2000fps (280 yards), killing is clean but can be somewhat delayed. It is very significant for Ruger because its .375-length (actually, a full-size magnum that also accommodates the .416 Rigby) action is only built into its M77 Mk II "express" rifle, an excellent rifle that is more than twice as expensive as the standard Ruger M77 Mk II--which is only available in a .30-06-length action. In any case, both the Swift and Woodleigh are far more reliable for hunting bovines than the 300 grain Partition bullet. The 250 grain bullet works acceptably well on smaller deer species at close to moderate ranges but its true forte is on large bodied deer. From a muzzle velocity of 3000fps the TSX breaks 2600fps at around 115 yards, 2400fps at 180 yards and 2200fps at around 240 yards. New 375 RUM Remington rifles sales must going south. Good luck with Dorian on Monday. Sep 21, 2015. Their capabilities remain essentially comparable. Fast kills could be expected out to ordinary hunting ranges of around 300 yards with room for shot placement error. The Dakota, Ruger and Nosler cartridges are essentially wider versions of the basic 2.5 belted magnums (.264 Win Mag, 7mm Rem Mag, .338 Win Mag). Steve Hornady hadn't been in Africa for a long, long time, but he's done as much mountain hunting as anyone I know. Zeroing off the bench with the Mossberg Patriot in 375 Ruger. Rifles chambered for the 300 PRC must be capable of handling 3.70in (93.98mm) overall length cartridges.[9][10]. Impact velocity is also a key factor. The .375 Ruger has passed the test of time for me in all aspects and I do believe it's popularity will increase as other manufactures add models chambered for it. The .375 Ruger also labors under giant velocity spikes between one shot to another with Hornady ammo, sometimes in excess of 150 FPS. Although bullet construction is always the most important consideration for fast and clean killing. At the time of writing (2017) the .375 Ruger has maintained high popularity. The velocity bonus is significant because it provides considerably more energy, slightly flattens trajectory and, from a pure marketing standpoint, places the .375 Ruger very close to the .375 Weatherby Magnum and .375 Remington Ultra Magnum in performance. In this instance, I waited a long time for smaller bull to quarter on so that I could take this photo for demonstration purposes. The Ruger should therefore be considered very mild in this regard. Tips, techniques, and equipment are applied to these classroom discussions on how to become more proficient and successful at making long-range shots while hunting with AR-platform rifles. The 235 grain TSX generally does its bets work above 2600fps on game weighing up to 450kg or around 1000lb. The .375 Ruger is a rimless cartridge often used for hunting large and dangerous game. .375 H&H Mag. In the Dangerous Game Series, Hornady loads their 270-grain InterLock spitzer at a muzzle velocity of 2840 fps, yielding a trajectory identical to the lighter 250-grain bullet and making it a perfect choice for bear, elk, moose, African plains game and the big cats as well. NE Alberta. This projectile really comes into its own when used at extended ranges on game weighing over 150kg (330lb), though it works well on lighter body weights at close to moderate ranges. It is potentially unwise to have a brake fitted to a short guide rifle to be used around clients. From the backcountry to the back-forty, trust your hunt to Outfitter ammunition. What It Is Not. The author's left-hand Ruger M77 Mk II in .375 Ruger groups very acceptably with the 270-grain Hornady Interlock.

All rights reserved. The .300 Ruger Compact Magnum or .300 RCM was designed in 2007 and uses a case designed by Hornady and Ruger based on the .375 Ruger cartridge. And yes, the Sierra bullet can suffer very high weight loss at high impact velocities, but it kills well. The .375 Ruger's slightly greater case capacity, and the "short fat" cartridge efficiency lead to increases in the neighborhood of 150 fps over the H&H cartridge. The Dakota has rim diameter of .543" and a base diameter of .545". This is not damning with faint praise, not at all. Initially, the two Ruger M77 rifles designed for the .375 Ruger were the Hawkeye African and Hawkeye Alaskan. The 235 grain Woodleigh Weldcore protected point is ideal for larger bodied medium game. Average working velocities from the 23 African include 3050fps to 3100fps with 225 grain bullets, 3000fps to 3050fps with 235 grain bullets, 2900fps with 250 grain bullets, 2850fps using 260 grain bullets, 2800fps for the 270 grainers, 2700fps with 300 grain bullets and 2450fps with 350 gain longsters. When I do, things are pretty serious. Nosler, as an example, show loads yielding 2880fps with their 260 grain bullets but these velocities were taken in a 26 barrel. With a case length of 2.580 inches and an overall length of 3.340 inches, the .375 Ruger will fit perfectly in a long-action receiver which will house a .300 Winchester Magnum or 7mm Remington Magnum. This change was made to prevent deformation of bullets under recoil. I have run .375 Ruger ammo through such actions and so far it has fed great every time. Apart from this small change, the RP Interlock performs the same as the traditional bullet. Savage Arms 110 Bear Hunter Rifle | 57047 375 Ruger, 23" Stainless BBL, Bolt Action, AccuFit MOBUC Camo Stock, Matte Stainless Finish, Adj Muzzle Brake, 2+1 Rds. But nobody makes taking that amount of game look easy with a poor rifle or an unsuitable cartridge, nor can it be done without consistently good bullet performance. Instead, the DGS seeks to find a compromise between terminal performance and smooth feeding from the Ruger action. By using a very basic lead core bullet with a partially flat nose, the cartridge OAL is kept short and without cramping powder space, while at the same time ammunition will generally feed smoothly from a box magazine. Is it significant that it fits in a .30-06-length action? The Hornady Superformance ammunition drives a 270-grain (17g) SP-RP bullet at 2,840ft/s (870m/s) and the 300-grain (19g) DGS and DGX bullets at 2,660ft/s (810m/s). Full production did occur until later in 2007. This projectile is most useful where lower impact velocities are to be expected or where game weights are between 300 and 600kg (660 to 1300lb), though 600kg should be considered the upper limit. This bullet differs quite simply in that it does not have any exposed lead at the bullet tip, similar to the Remington CoreLokt. Only problem is that you are limited to only Hornady brass. The cartridge is based on the .375 Ruger case, which was necked up to accept a .416in (10.6mm) bullet. Out of stock. All RifleShooter subscribers now have digital access to their magazine content. Mossberg Patriot .375 Ruger JakeH Jun 7, 2018 1 2 Next JakeH AH enthusiast Joined Jul 22, 2017 Messages 405 Reaction score 522 Location North Carolina Media 2 Hunting reports Africa 1 Member of NRA Hunted USA Jun 7, 2018 #1 Does anybody here have any firsthand experience with the Mossberg Patriot in .375 Ruger? As most of you know by now, obtaining smooth feeding can be problematic with our new short, fat magnums, but this does not seem to be a problem with this cartridge, at least not in the Ruger M77 with .30-06-length action. J. Scott Rupp takes a first look at the Springfield M1A Loaded rifle chambered in the popular 6.5 Creedmoor. The author has now seen four different .375 Ruger rifles, and all have shot very well. The .416 Ruger is a beltless, rimless, bottle-necked cartridge designed as a joint venture by Hornady and Ruger in 2008. This is where the 350 grain bullets can come into their own; the round nose where a wide range of game weights may be encountered and the stouter protected point for dedicated heavy game hunting. The maximum overall length of the cartridge is 3.340in (84.8mm), which is similar to the maximum overall length to standard-length cartridges such as the .338 Winchester Magnum or the .30-06 Springfield. One of my clients showed up to hunt buffalo, sable plains game etc. On the other hand, pretty much all of the 250 grain .375 bullets mentioned with this text, both premium and non-premium, will tackle a 600kg Eland bull due to the nature of its weight distribution. The author and professional hunter J.P. Kleinhans with a good waterbuck, dropped in its tracks with a frontal shot with a 270-grain Hornady InterLock. This allows the cartridge to have a greater case capacity than a belted magnum case given cases of equal length. The premiums can be divided into those that are relatively soft in nature versus those which are truly tough. The left hand rifle options are also greatly appreciated. Loaded to 3000fps the 250 grain Sierra (BC .371) breaks its 1800fps limit at around 520 yards. He had reloads with .300 grain Hornady DGX Softs and solids. It is also worth noting that Hornadys Superformance loads for the .375 H&H almost duplicate the .375 Ruger loadings, though without the same level of efficiency. The company is introducing the .375 Ruger in two configurations under the M77 "Hawkeye" name: a wooden-stock, 23-inch-barrel model called the M77 Hawkeye "African" and a Jim Hogue synthetic-stock, 20-inch-barrel version, which will be known as the "Alaskan.". Below 2200fps killing can be very slow. Again, getting close with an accurate rifle is the key. (Ouch, just typing that line hurt me.) I left Ken and Wayne in Mozambique to do a bit more hunting and headed home. If the hunter can visualize both the point of the shoulder and forwards portion of the lungs and work the angles according to the situation this will increase the ability of the bullet (any bullet) to produce a fast kill. Ken and J.P. maneuvered as long as they could, but when the sun was almost setting they used the standard last-light field-expedient tactic of charging into the herd, hoping the bull they'd selected would do the right thing. In 2007, it was released commercially and chambered in the Ruger Hawkeye African and the Ruger Hawkeye Alaskan rifles.[2]. It is designed to provide an increase in performance over the .375 H&H cartridge, yet to be chambered in a standard-length action rifle. If the rifle is to be used at long ranges then a longer rifle action such as the M700 will allow long bullets to be utilized within the magazine box. I do not know his reload recipe other than he used Winchester powder. It is for these reasons that as much as I like the Swift and Woodleigh medium weight bullets, I do not see them as being ideal for heavy game. Without due protection the Ruger brake can cause immediate hearing damage and a temporary loss of sight should gases blow back into ones eyes from the short barrel. They pulled up short, and, luckily, the bull they wanted turned and gave them a clear frontal shot. But understand this: if you cannot test shoot this rifle without using a lead sled, do not expect to miraculously become Matthew Quigley in the field without it. At Sportsman's Warehouse, we offer bolt action rifles chambered in .375 Ruger from leading manufacturers including Mossberg, Ruger, and Savage Arms. of muzzle energy is where the .375 Ruger shines as dangerous game cartridge. All of these subjects (including Ruger accurizing) are covered in great detail within my book series. In another box was plenty of Hornady ammo. The .500 Bushwhacker is a semirimmed magnum handgun cartridge initially developed by fireforming the .375 Ruger case cylindrical, shortening it by 0.13 in, and threading the base for a rim. To aim behind the shoulder simply underutilizes these bullet designs - a bonded soft point bullet would have been entirely adequate for this. Otherwise, this is an outstanding bullet design. On the subject of high velocity, a hot .375 will produce rather stout recoil. Rather, I think the case design is extremely clever from a manufacturer's standpoint because you have a bigger, fatter case that will not only fit existing bolt faces (as do rebated rims) but also feed well from existing magazine boxes. His first trophy was a 40 inch buffalo. The .375 Ruger cartridge and Ruger Hawkeye African bolt rifle are not flashes in the pan, but the author thought they could stand a little improvement. On another afternoon I used Wayne's rifle to take a lovely waterbuck. Although no longer listed, a quick mention must go to the now discontinued 225 grain Hornady Interlock. The new Hornady 300 grain bonded DGX should (there is that doesnt actually know for sure should again) prove equally effective. Those who want the highest possible velocities may wish to adopt a custom rifle start with a generous barrel length (my own preference is 26 to keep the blast and noise forwards while taming recoil). In 24-inch test barrels, the .375 Ruger sent 270-grain bullets at 2,840 fps and 300s at 2,660, trumping the .375 H&H by more than 100 fps. Used in this manner the GMX is able to produce very high physical and nervous trauma on game weighing up to and exceeding 600kg (1300lb). The compact case is extremely well suited to a very wide range of rifle actions. In fact, as much as it truly galls me to say this, the .375 Ruger is probably a better cartridge. off hand standing position.
