Yep! I swear I think it is cause the powder burns faster in a shotshell. And many 375HHs are much heavier than most shotguns.
All the 375HH rounds I shot all had a much slower "push". Turkey loads are like a kung fu drop kick in the shoulder in a light gun. Try putting a mercury tube in the magazine. And it will tame even 3.5"s way down. It takes away two rounds but so what.

Jaco HumanI have a SAKO 375 H&H and it is a very light rifle, makes it easy to carry in the bush. The recoil is a little bit more than that of a Bruno. Even so my 17 year old daughter loves to shoot with it( she tall and slender) She can manage a 1" 3 shot group at 50 meters standing. I agree with Terry anybody can learn to shoot a 375. It is the best rifle and my favourite.

T.CarrI think almost anyone can learn to shoot a .375 H&H. I have almost identical rifles in .375 H&H and in .416 Rem Mag. The .416 has, in my opinion, a noticeable increase in recoil. I don't know that everyone could handle the .416.
