This was Westley Richards attempt to create an proprietary .375 bore std length bolt gun cartridge.
It was to be a commercial version of the popular european 9.5x66 Super Express which is a shortened and necked down .404 Jeffery.
For some unknown reason Westley Richards decided not to proceed with the project.
Horneber do make brass, RCBS make dies.

9.3x64B, 375WR,375H&H



9.3x64B and 375WR.

An early version of the 376 Steyr

"it is based on the 9.3 x 64 Brenneke case, necked up to accept a 0.375-inch (9.5 mm) diameter bullet. The case is also shortened by about 4 mm to fit a standard length rifle action."
