in guns and ammo this month i see mossberg has a new 375.
oh i can just see see. biebs dancing around with a new mossberg 375 gleefully throwing his blaser into the fire
be just like mayday in new joysey

Remindsme of watching a group of carpenters framing out a house .One looked at another's hammer ."where did you get that hammer ?" " In Sears " "SEARS ??? " "Yes , it fits my hand well and I really like it "
Professionals don't get their tools from Sears !

Will the Mossberg 375 be contagious ?If so I've got to move , I live too close to Biebs !

mete,

it was probably about time to fence your property and put in a gate anyhow...

I've heard that it will be a limited edition, only sold in Minnesota.

Sears carries Estwing tools -yes professionals do get tools from Sears

Tools make the man [or woman] !
A local female elctrician solved one problem . She painted her tools PINK , knowing no guy would be seen with a pink tool .No more borrowing !

The Moss berg is one option if and when we try a new rifle.. It looks like a winner, filling in the niche that Ruger left with their Alaskan 375Ruger.

Thought the .375 Ruger cartridge was supposed to be dead by now...

capo,

it's on life support...

My wife likes hers so much I might need to get one for the US.

Blasers do make excellent firewood! not sure about Mossbergs but they would normally be a candidate for such!

I go now

Anyone that thinks the "Three Seven Five Ruger"(spelled out and put in quotations so it looks as old and vaunted as the ill conceived BELTED original)is dead/on life support obviously doesn't acknowledge the trend away from the useless/unnecessary belt(except for straight walled cases of course). Never served a useful purpose on a bottleneck cartridge, never will. I applaud Mossberg for offering such a well designed, capably powerful cartridge, in an aesthetically pleasing, and affordable package. Unlike the trend with other manufacturers, the price point of this rifle did not go up with the power level of the cartridge it was chambered for. I would think the members of this forum, and readers of this particular thread would welcome any avenue of decent quality that would encourage new membership into the fascinating world of Big Bore Rifles(even though the originators of the "Three Seven Five" classified it as a medium bore). Who knows, the newly initiated might even learn a little about the history of cartridge development that you all seem to be clinging so steadfastly to. In fact, I have a prediction to make. I believe that before I(I am 49), and many of you are returned to dust, that the Ruger version will replace the originals as THE "Three Seven Five", and probably the "Four One Six", of choice. And for all of you still clinging so heartily to the past, not to worry. After several generations of dominance of the .375 Ruger, who knows, there may be a revival of old classic, obsolete cartridges that include the .375 H&H and your great, great grandchildren will get to know and love it as you did!

By the way, I personally own a .375 H&H and a .416 Rigby, and have probably killed more animals with them than you have, so no casting of stones from the peanut gallery that I don't know what I'm talking about. Just saying.

The 375 Ruger is a great cartridge and I do applaud Mossberg.

And I might end up using a 416Ruger someday,happily but it won't replace what a handloaded 416 Rigby can do.

2 things Ruger could do to spur sales of a gteat cartridge....the .375 R

Put it in a rifle without that ugly brake

It's an -06 length action.....price point should be the same as a standard long action


I will have a .375R one day....but the rifle will need to be a 2011/12 Hawkeye
