Gents,

This is what I have the most of and am expecting the rifle this month. In preparation for the upcoming bull moose hunt does anyone have a few good loads worked up with these components I could view. I also have some IMR 4064 on hand and some Hornady 300 gr RNs as well as some GS Custom 265 gr HVs. Rifle is a M70 with pacnor 24" ss tube housed in an echols legend stock.

Thanks,

Jeff

What cartridge? 375, than 4350 works very well, with either bullet.

If it is a 375 H&H you are loading for then 76 grains of 4350 and a 300 grain bullet should shoot well. It would be an odd 375 if it didn't like that load.

sorry, yes 375 H&H.

My .375 H&H Magnum Mauser prefers 75 grains of IMR-4350, especially with the 270 gr. bullets....under MOA for 5-shot groups from the bench at 100 with a 2-7 X scope set on about 3-X.

specifically which bullets, AC?

I push the 270 grain Speer bullet a little harder, with 81 grains of IMR 4350. Best groups I have shot with this load. Some are all three touching. Velocity is @ 2650fps, extreme spread is between 12 and 24 fps.

The IMR 4350 and the 300 partition is my favorite load in my H&H. I would start off at 73 or 74 grains and work up from there. Your rifle will tell you what charge it likes. I use magnum primers in mine.

I've also used the 270 Hornady spire point (now interlock) with same powder when I couldn't locate any 300 partitions. That bullet works equally well.

Jerry, I tried some 270 Speers once, I never got them to shoot well, but abandoned the effort early. I had chalked it up to my barrel not liking the shorter driving band of that bullet.

just got a good deal on 250 gr TBBCs through midway. still there if anyone is interested.

Standard 270 gr. C'N C Hornadys, and 300 grain Winchester Silvertips and Speers of which I bought a large supply in 1964 or '65.
