Any info on the 375 Lapua?
Just a custom wildcat with custom dies?
Does this thing exist somewhere on this globe?
Any info at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Sorry!
It's a creation of my own, but it's a thing that I was wandering about making for myself. I think this must be a good option instead of the 375 RUM, or Wby. I think, by only necking the case up to .375, you'll be able of beeing close to the 378 Wby here. And without a belt. I've not heard about any others of this round yet, but there must be??
Even thinking of a .458. Would be in the 458 Lott area I think??

The only drawback is the need of a long action, with a large boltface, and a large front ring on thew action.
Does this sound interresting to you.....go on. I think it's cheeper, and easyer for you to have this done.
Please keep me updated if you go for it. [Wink]

Arild,
I recalled that we had spoken of this long ago, but I wasn't sure if you had actually chambered a rifle in .375/338 Lapua.

Here would be the ultimate .375 cartridge, eh?

I would love to have a unique 375, just so Saeed isn't the only one. [Wink]

I think I shall just start with a 338 Lapua barrel on a CZ 550 (it is at The Gunsmith's shop now). Then I will have to have some 338 Lapua brass and dies. I have a .338 to .375 tapered expander already. Next episode: 375 Lapua dummies, then a reamer from Dave Manson, and finally some custom dies. Stay tuned ...
