I bought a 375 HH for next to nothing (because most people who buy it, for any African idea, realise it is more than needed for every thing else). I(as most sane people:-) figured it kicks much more than I need, so I set the barrel back 0.75". Then I cut the sizing die back the same length. I size 40-65 brass to fit what is left of the 375 H&H chamber, turn the rim down to fit standard magnum dimensions, and shoot a cheep 375 conversion that is very similar to a 9.3x62 - "free of charge" :-) anyone done it before?

Did you find all that work easier than just downloading?

I tried downloading with Vihtavuori N110, But I got too much speed variation.
(I have a lathe myself, so "all that work" is more like an argument for doing it rather than against :-)

That will not make much of a difference, will it?

I can see maybe using 376 Steyr brass for a half inch shorter version. A mini belt-less 375 HH.

pretty cool concept, really .. if it works out, great.. if not, recut for standard length and be done with it... as the chamber is .512 or so, right before the belt, I expect what boomie said would work.. or use 9.3x64 brass


opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club
