375 ultra mag

[Bearman375]

I've got 2-375 RUM, a Remington with a Lilja bbl and a Montana rifle co. one I'm shooting 260 accubonds at 3,050 in the Montana and 250 sierras at 3,100 out of Remington gun. the facts…recoil is stout but totally manageable, kills like an absolute monster. Shoots fairly flat…3" high @ 100 is 3" low at 300 unbelievably accurate, it's one of my favorite calibers. 2 moose, a ton of monster Canada black bears, coyotes and big deer. It's not finicky to load for and an absolute beast ! Good luck!

Another bullet to consider for LR hunting is the Chinchagas. The 375 grain RBT ST has a G1 bc of .8 and shot great out of 2 rifles I shot them out of (a bit bigger than the RUM ). I used the 350 SMK at a similar velocity for shooting sessions, because it has the same BC and was cheaper, and simply swapped ammo for hunting.

I've Also considered either the 375 RUM or even better a 375 REAPER .. and possibly mage feed it

Well you have been making Dreams come true for along time , I say go for it !

I have talked about the 375 Rum for way to long ....the time is now !

how does that brake do with recoil?

 

[Rum Man]

His is a t-5 terminator and it helps alot !
I have a t-4 terminator and a Ti-pro 5 to try on my new build .

He settled on the 329 gr hammers, his is a 1/10 twist . The 395 gr were ok but not fast enough for him ! Ha ha

That's quite the rifle……obviously shooting beyond 1K requires some pretty specialized equipment! memtb

He built his for Montana Bear Hunting and I'm doing the same . I just want a Shorter barrel set up . I don't need the 375 Rum really , I have enough 338's to get me by but always wanted the 375 for some heavy bullets ! Time and testing but looking for heavier than 350 gr . The 365 , 375 and 395 gr is were I'm headed. Put together in a 26" barrel rifle .
Mine should be perfect out to 1200 yards or so and hit with Authority!
