Very nice, now you need to load up a bunch of dummy rounds and set them up all over the house............at least that's what I do haha.

Sounds like it was a lot of fun. The 375 Winchester is such an underrated round.

Between you @nhenry and @Blkram you guys sure have some nice lefty rifles! That's a beauty that you'll love. Easy cartridge to load for, powders in the various 4350's to the H 4831 sc are the best all around powders from what I have seen over the years.

Nothing wrong with a fast twist 257 Roberts, you'll be able to shoot any bullet you want all the way up to the new heavyweights starting to come out now.

Same parent case so I can't see why not. With the heavier recoil you might need to make sure that the bedding is up to snuff and if it's a wood stock maybe some cross bolts to make sure it doesn't split. The Ruger Hawkeye I had in 375 Ruger did shift in the wood stock, that's how I found that...

Let us know how it works out for you and I'll do the same. Definitely my favorite black bear bullet and bigger stuff in the 270 Win or 6.8 Western.

I forgot they switched over to the model 21. You are undoubtedly correct on them having leftover actions to use up.

That's how it always starts lol.....

Haha I was waiting for that, now Gil won't have to say it. Too rich for my blood.......

I'm a British Columbia resident as well and yes there are large moose in the northern sections of the province especially if you are away from civilization. There are some good sized moose elsewhere in BC too but your best bet is in the remote sections of the northern half of the province.

You had better get on this @Blkram........

I've used all of those except the Hornady for bear or moose and would say any of the lead core 225's or 200 gr TTSX. No bad choices with any of those.

I would like to see the long rumored Ballistic Tip Long Range (BTLR). Something like that might be less finicky than the ABLR to load. More options in the Solid Base line too. 257 130 gr BTLR 257 130 gr Accubond 257 135gr Solid Base 277 165 gr BTLR 277 170 gr Solid Base 277 170 gr Accubond 358...

Some great loads JD, maybe you could do some bullet testing on the hogs when you're down south.

I looked on their website and they are listed at 7.3 lbs and a 1 in 14 twist should be great for all but the really heavy mono bullets from Hammer and others. It will be fine for the vast majority of 35 cal bullets out there. The CVA Cascade seems to have a very good reputation too.

"Acquired over a long career........" Shout out to Liam Neeson :D

That's my favorite 270 cal bullet and it's on my list to work up a load in my 6.8 Western this year. Going to use Hodgdon's data for the 165 gr ABLR and work up slowly. Going to try Magpro first, what powders are you looking at?

"I saw that you had all those part filled powder cans so I combined them into one big can for you......."

This is their brand new design the HBC. Yes they offer heavier options in their other tipped bullets but these new ones are very sleek even compared to those.
