375 winchester loads?

[grimreality]

Does anyone have loads for a 375 winchester? I have a savage 99a. And I would like to start getting into reloading.

I love the .375 Winchester, and no disrespect to the 99, but if starting reloading this might not be the best place to start.

Get a common cartridge, in a bolt action. Just me.

Finding bullets will be a challenge. This is my best source so far:

Powder selection is also going to be fun, just because components are hard to come by and it uses the same powders as some more popular cartridges.

Hornady has put the 375 Win into the “retired” category, but they still have data for it:

Get the Lee Modern Reloading( Second Edition) book from Midway USA, about $18 Bucks. They've got 2 pages of loads for the 375 Winchester.

And from what I have read there are 2 differnt primes I have seen that will work in this cartridge.

Wlr primers and cci. Projectiles seem to be the problem

A good reloading manual should be the first purchase

The 200 grn flat nose will work great. The 375 Win is a sweet little round, but it's going to struggle to push a bonded 300 gn fast enough for good expansion. 200 to 220 is what you seek for a bullet.

My load for the Fury 220 gn from my Winchester 94 uses 38.5 gn Accurate 1680, Fed 210 LRP, coal 2.546"

Your load might be totally different. You're already using a different rifle, and almost every component is likely to be different. There's no shortage of books or youtube videos available to guide you through the loading process, so make sure you're comfortable with what you're doing.
