Please keep me posted on how they do. Have you gathered any numbers off of them at all yet?

Will do. I have nothing yet. Just too dang wet to do anything.

Hopefully you'll get superb results because that's the bullet I'm wanting to use. Decent BC of around .525 And if you can push them to 2950-3050 FPS I think that will be the do all round for long range anything .

I have it loaded in the 375 Zayne. It should yield some very strong velocities. As long as we can find a accurate node, I think this is a very good all around bullet for the 375.

I just bought a 375 RUM that came with some 281 grain hammer hunters loaded up. I shot a few the other day and they were 2930ish FPS. I think I can change the powder and eke out a little more speed.

That's what I was wanting to hear. What length barrel?

22" barrel. Sorry, I meant to put that in my other post.
Don't rule out the 350gr SMK. If you took the time to trim and point them I think they'd work well for you. That's just about the only bullet I shoot in my 375 BME and it's worked well out to 2600 yards.

Great point! The 350 SMK was my go too for a long time. Killed lots of animals.
Same here, .802 for a G1 and .403 for a G7.

I just worry that using them in my regular RUM case they won't be able to be pushed fast enough to take advantage of that super good BC. Although I am going with either a 28" or a 30" tube
