I somehow ended up with 4 375 Rugers.

Is there any other factor ammo that Hornady ?

Thanks,

Mike

I believe they are the only "major" company loading for it at this time. I do however think there are some smaller outfits like Double Tap that also have a few loads. I carry Double Tap ammo in my 10mm and it is good stuff.

Mike:

You might get Safari Arms to make some for you. I have been very pleased with their ammo this far.

Larry:

I have 5 boxes - 100 pounds of TSX 375 Ruger made by Double Tap.

I will get safari arms to load me some too.

I was looking for cheap shooting ammo. Maybe just buy hornady - shoot them and save the brass.

Might have to invest in some reloading equipment for 375 Ruger - dies ect. Have somebody load me some.

Just ended by with thousands of rounds of 375H&H and one 375 H&H rifle. These 375 Rugers somehow slipped into the collection. Maybe the $699 price point had something to do with it.

I suggest getting reloading equipment, I started with factory Hornady 270gr. and saved my cases. I have worked up 2 loads for my 375 Ruger Guide Gun that works really well. I load a Nosler 300gr. Accubond and a Woodleigh 350gr. PP bullets. I have found RL17 powder and a WLRMP Primer with a crimp from a Lee factory crimp die and your set.

For the would-be reloader who only plans to make a limited amount of ammo, I strongly suggest trying the Lee Hand Loading Set. No press, no powder scale, etc.
You take a fired case, clean it a little, then use the tool set and plastic hammer to knock out the old primer and drive the case into a die, remove from the die and prime, then use a small cup measure for powder, then insert the bullet and you have a loaded cartridge.
Quite simple and safe.
Takes about 2 minutes per round.

Bob,
With all respect to your post, and assuming if one owns a 375 Ruger, that it is intended to be used to hunt DG or the largest of animals with handloads, I would not recommend a hand reloading tool as they only neck size as I recall, and DG and hunting reloads should always be full length resized in my opinnion. Feed and function is first and foremost, but to each his own.

Nosler makes it. I know Swift is getting into selling factory ammo as well. Not sure if they have released any product as of yet though.

Bob if your talking about the lee loader, they dont come in 375 ruger. there is a lee hand press that takes standard dies.But i suggest buying a press like the rcbs rock chuckeralong with all the other equipment needed . it will pay for itself in the long run.

Cannot agree more. Excellent advice. Period.

Hendershots. I haven't used it but the list of bullets is impressive.

I've been really disappointed in Hendershots.

Called them numerous times to talk to someone about purchasing their ammo. Was told each time the person I needed to speak to wasn't in but they would have him call me. Not once did I ever receive a call back.

Won't try again.

Call John LaSalla at Safari Arms. Excellent to deal with.

Swift has finally started selling their own ammo.

I just bought some and it was VERY accurate in my Ruger African.

It sells for $85/box retail, but Midway has it on sale for $68/box.
