.375 ackley improved?

I got a buddy, that lives in AK. He sent me an email wondering if I could help him find some reloading info for the cartridge. Frankly, I know nothing about it. Was wondering, do any of the reloading manuals have info on reloading it? If so, let me know which ones, and I'll pass it on to my friend. Thanks.

If its the 375 H&H Ackley he can use the same load data as the 375 Weatherby (not the 378 Weatherby; wholly different case). Several manuals have 375 Wby data including Barnes and A-Square.

If its the 30-06 based wildcat he'll have to google some loads.

"Experience" is the only class you take where the exam comes before the lesson.

Tell him to start with 87 grns of RL-19, with a 300 grain Hornady BT. Work up if desired.
