I have tried some of Steve's 370 grain Hammers. He is working on a revision that I hope gets done soon.
The CEB Lazers I tried showed real promise at distance, with the Chinchagas being the most accurate. The Chinchagas open up quickly, from my limited experience, and will probably be a great terminal performer at distance.
 
Shot a black bear last fall at 530 yards with a 325 gr 338 cal Chinchaga RBT bullet, performance was spectacular , bullet opened up on impact but held together and plowed through ending up in the swamp muck somewhere with bears inner organ parts and pieces strewn across the turf,

a week later I dropped a nice bull moose with a 325 gr 338 cal Chinchaga bullet at 480 yards and it was instant death with same results, shot the bull square in the shoulder and it punched completely through breaking leg bones and ribs on both sides, shot was high and missed the heart but both lungs were shredded and all connecters of inner organs were disconnected and blood soup, neither animal went anywhere, no tracking, no blood trail to follow, just pull up on atv and pack it out

haven't shot any game with the 375 cal bullets yet but have reason to believe they will perform just as good if not better, should be phenomenal bullets for stopping brown bear in their tracks, I wouldn't hesitate to face off with a griz loaded up with Chinchaga RBT 375 cal bullets

neither of the shots were at long range but both showed quick bullet upset indicating that the big tip works for immediate bullet expansion, even though the distance was similar, the two shots were completely different on impact but performed admirably in both instances, soft tissue hit with vitals obliterated and decent entrance and exit holes for massive blood trauma, and a direct shoulder bone hit on impact and exit with similar results , along with that the bullets are extremely accurate and provided me with some of the lowest sd and es I have ever seen to date,

bc's are fairly decent for long range hunting, not the highest out there but all the bc chasing will not offer better big game animal killing performance in my opinion

The one animal I have shot with the 375 grain Chinchaga was a decent sized whitetail buck at 430 yards (if memory serves me correct), this would put the retained velocity around 2600 fps. Hit him almost head on with slight quartering to my right, between the shoulder and neck junction. Absolutely devastated him and almost took the shoulder completely off.
 
We have 4 different changes in baring surface that I feel confident well produce a solution for the big boomers.

Good deal Steve. What about us small boomers?? :D like a High BC 250 grain .308 bullet.? ;)

I enjoy seeing better bullets or more options come out. A .375 has been on my mind for a bit now.
