Owned lefties in both 375 and 416. Both were very nice. Never did fire the 416 but used the 375 for years untill I got fed up with the trigger freezing up in wet subfreezing conditions up here in Alaska.
If I lived in a warmer climate I would buy them again.


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

I've used a Model 700 Classic in 375 H&H for years. It's never let me down and has made several trips to Africa. Very accurate. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another like it if I found it for a decent price.

..Had a 375 H&H and it was fine , gave it to a friend ..Had a 338 RUM and really liked it ...Trying to decide if I want a 24" barreled 375 RUM or the 26" version of the same caliber ........Pretty lively when you touch them off but a pleasure to pack ....,.,


.If it can,t be grown , its gotta be mined ....

They function very well,I had a LSS in 375rum that I liked alot.I took a decent yukon/alaskan bull moose with it.The 375 rum sure launches those 270gr x bullets over a full load of RL19

Had one in 458. Very nicely put together and very accurate and reliable. Cannot fault it in any way. Would trust it under all circumstances.
