I really like my 375rum, have taken around 10 deer and 1 cow moose with it. Recoil is fair but certainly not unmanageable. Was shooting prone on a harris bipod(rem 700bdl) and the bipod ripped the front stud out of the gun and the bipod ended up behind me. now the gun is in a hogue overmolded and shoots sierra 300 gamekings very well, best ever group 0.4" ctc 3 shot at 200 yards off the bench. Have shot 260 to 350 grain bullets through it,and settled with the 300grain partitions,gamekings, and hornadies. I know if i make any kind of a reasonable shot on an animal its going down fairly to extremely fast. My scope is a weaver grandslam 3-10 and has worked well.

I have one and a second on order. The first one is a Rem 700 KS Safari w/22" barrel. Shoots great, 1.5" with factory 300gr A-frames (the crosshairs on the 1.5-6x scope I am useing covers over 1" at 100 yards so the groups would srink if I used a fine crosshair). I haven't gotten any handloads to the range yet. I was planning on hunting with it this year, but things fell through. My second 375UM is being built on a Sako action, holds four in the mag plus one up the spout. I ordered it with a 26" barrel and plan on using it for long range work. Should be a nice deer rifle. The Rem weighs 8lbs w/o the scope...recoil is noticable, but managable. My two pennys worth.
