My boss just came home from a hunting trip in Africa and he said he say a guy there with a rifle chambered in .376 Stein and asked me if I ever heard of it. He said the rifle was a real tacticial looking thing with bipods built into the forearm and all and looked more like a rifle a police sniper would be useing. Anyone have any ideas?

From the description it sure sounds like a Steyr Scout rifle in .376 Steyr.

Yep that sounds like what he was discribing. He did mention the scope being set up in the scout mount set up. Thanks guys.

376 steyr, if you call a .375 bullet a big bore, it's the best bang for the buck today.

The Steyr is a bit like the 375 AHR, no?

the steyr, and now the 375 ruger, are good reasons not to do a wildcat that close ... Smiler
