I have a trijicon accupiont 3-9 X 40 on a 375

Trijicon told me that the 1 x 4 should be just fine on a .458 Lott and after about 400 rounds, it still shoots just fine. I don't think there would be a problem.

I have a 3x9 trijicon on my 404, which is slinging pretty stout custom loads. No issues at all.

Had one on my Rigby with about 400 shots. It is now on my 9.3X74 with about 100 shots. No problems. Looking to put another one on the Rigby.

Thank You for the replys. Looks like I can put it on the 416. Going buffalo hunting in the future, and cant decide between the 375 and 416.

Both the .375 and the .416 are good choices and each of them have a loyal following. If you plan to hunt dangerous game many would recommend the heaviest caliber you can shoot accurately, practice a lot, and shoot the best premium bullets you can get.

Hey Dave,

I mentioned this on another thread under "Big Bore Rifles" but it sure would be nice if Trijicon would add a couple products to their line up.

1) An Accupoint in the 1.5 to 7 magnification range and,

2) A non battery model RMR with the 3.25 MOA sized dot.

Could you pass along the suggestion?

Todd

All Trijicon products are descended from combat sights made to withstand rough treatment! You don’t have to worry about a big bore rifle hurting them IMO!
