Does anybody know if Nosler still produces .375 Ruger brass ? It doesn't seem to be listed currently on their website. Thanks

Some additional research suggests that the Nosler 375 Ruger brass is merely Hornady brass weight sorted and prepped. Can anyone comment....?

I have been using Hornady brass in two different .375 Rugers. I have not been able to wear out any brass yet, and accuracy is good. It seems to be good quality brass.

Thanks Dale. Helpful comment.
May I ask how many loadings have been shot from your brass to date ?

6 to 8 reloadings so far. The Hornady .375 brass seems to be fairly heavy brass. I trim every time to keep the lengths of all cases uniform, and after each firing it barely removes any brass, so stretching is minimal. I think the heavy (or maybe tough) brass combined with the sharper shoulder minimizes stretching and makes it last well. As much as I like my .375 H&H, I think the Ruger is a better case design.

Thanks for the information. The only .375 Ruger brass I've seen is Hornady...and I've not seen ANY for sale for a long time. I figure my wimpy loads should allow the brass to last a l.o.n.g time.

Having been a H&H fan for ions, I tried out the 375 Ruger African style (2008 year) and there is no doubt the Ruger is the better designed cartridge, and I much prefer it over my H&H short of the nostalgia that the H&H has, the only reason to own one these days and I never thought I say that, but thats my story and Im sticking to it...The Hornady brass has held up well, but the case design is kind to any brass.
