RIPBrett,
My one chance to chronograph recently had pouring rain and 35 degrees F temps, when the 10 degrees F snap broke.
JJ_Miller posted velocities at 10 degrees F from his 23" African:
2740 fps for 270 grain factory load
2645 fps for 300 grain factory load
Search for his thread and another thread asking about .375 Ruger case capacity that I answered as follows: 101 grains of water gross.
Jeff Quinn at
www.gunblast.com has already listed some pretty wild velocities for handloads at:
http://www.gunblast.com/Ruger-Hawkeye375.htmI will get to it when I can. I work odd jobs for a living and it can get very odd at times.

BrettRIP,
Sorry about the rain. Having cold weather here in San Diego, must be down to 60 today...
Saw both the other posts, just looking for your data as well. I think a reamer is in my future.
Now get out of that ER and do some 'potent stuff.

HunterJimBrett,
I have a Ruger African here in San Diego and some factory ammo, but I have not shot them over a chrono yet.
