I tried getting the 270 gr Hornady to shoot but couldn't. I'll play with seating depth some and see if I can tune it. The 270 speer has shot phenomenally (left target), but the Hornady didn't do so good (right). 100 yards, 5 shots, round robin styleThe 38-55 and 375 Winchester are great black bear and moose cartridges. They are most effective with relatively soft cast or cup and core 240 to 265 grain bullets. They are travelling slightly slower than your 375/08, depending on bullet weight. At lower velocity you want something that will open up properly. A 22 RF will penetrate a bears skull, so the 375/08 will do it easily. Even in my 375 Ruger I like the Hornady 270 grain Interlocks every bit as good as the TSX. For bear I actually prefer the Hornady.
