Re: 375 CHATFIELD-TAYLOR ON BIG GAME?
Sabot, do you have any load data? Chrono data? Thanks... My .308 loves AA2520. Have you loaded any of this powder?

Sabot:

I can't get there anymore either, but I did print the data a while back. He is listing loads using RL-15, IMR-4064, IMR-4320, and IMR 4895. I'll bet both Varget and AA2520 would be good powders as well. He has loads from 260g to 300g with IMR-4064....

I'm really interested in the 270g Barnes Triple Shock and the 270g Accubond. But it will be awhile before my gun is ready to go.

There was good load data for the 375 Taylor on the 416 Taylor Web site under "other sites" below this site, but it will not open for me.

Can anyone else get into the 416 site?

MKane160 and Sabot,

The link in my original post won't open. Here is the correct link http://www.adi-limited.com/handloaders-guide/equivalents.asp

I also omitted to give you the loads I used in my 375 Chatfield-Taylor (a Ruger M77). You can see them at an Australian forum see http://www.australianhunting.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2586 . There is loading data for the 375/338 Winchester Magnum at the Reloaders' Nest at http://www.reloadersnest.com/frontpage.asp?CaliberID=330

Let's hear from other 375 Chatfield-Taylor (375/338WM) owners and users out there. How does it perform on North American (and African too) game. I think it would make a good cartridge for bear, and, for that matter, anything you'd use a 375 H&H on.

Another proud owner of the 375-338 here. My rifle is built on a Enfield action( my favorite for the big boys up to and including my 500A2) and as was mentioned IMR 4064 is the powder for this combination. I am quite happy with my 375 and have 3 different cast boolits to try once I catch up with the other 30,000 projects I currently have in progress.
