I'm trying to find 375 bullets, esp. solids, of 350 gr or more. Midway shows the Woodleigh 350's as out-of-stock, not backordered. GS Custom does not make such a bullet. Any help out there? I know I can always count on you guys.

Huntingtons usually has them..They are a great bullet on Cape Buffalo, and up the old .375 to a .416 IMO...

I use the 350 gr. softs and they have a lot of penetration, particularly the PP version..I still use the 300 gr. solids. My gun shoots them both to the same POI...

Thanks Ray. You probably don't remember, but you've given me some good advice in the past.

Will the .350 gr. stabilize well in the recent Model 70?

And if they do, which Woodleigh bullet would you use on buff? Round point or protected point? I have 17 months to test new loads. Right now I'm set on the 300 gr. A Frame, but I'm always willing to learn.

Are there any reports in on the Norma PH soft?

jetdrv, I am shooting the 350 grain Woodleigh Weldcore's in my pre-64 Model 70 and they are accurate as hell. More accuracy than I was able to get out of the 300 grain TBBC's, at least in my gun. Good luck.

Ditto for me. With Ray's load of 67gr of RL15 I got sub MOA groups at 2400fps. I used the PP's and my PH had me load 2 PP's over 2 solids (which shot to the same POA BTW).

That sounds great. I'll order up a batch and give them a try. Thanks.

I have about 45 Speer 300 grain Tungsten solids Larry at Superior loaded for me because I couldn't get a hard crimp on my Redding die, so I'd hate to have those go to waste. Very pricy.
