.375-370 grain accubond with .700+ bc

[375ultra]

With some great new bullets for 2012, how many shooters would buy this bullet if produced? I have been waiting a long time for something like this.

 

[FOTIS]

Not me to be honest.

That bullet would shine in a Cheytac & snipetac or Allen magnums.

I would not run it in my 378 WBY. Way too long and probably not enough velocity. Also not too sure if the 1:12 twist of the Bees and ultras would stabilize it.

Read the tread below for a 300 grain 375 bullet (hunting) with a .750 BC. I have them sitting on my bench.

I asked Daniel (Cutting Edge bullet Prez) for them and now they are mass producing them in this weight. Too new to be on the web page yet.

Man, that would have to be some kinda long missile for sure. I would bet a good 300gr'er in 375 would be good too though. Scotty

I've seen those but at more than $2.00 a piece the cost prevents shooting them.

 

[FOTIS]

I agree on the cost. They are a specialty bullet.

When I get my 378 back from surgery I will work up a load (should take about 1/2 a box and then the rest will last me for years . One or two for sight in verification and one or two a year for hunting.......

Hunting only that is. I have plenty of 260 AB''s. At 3200 fps they shoot plenty flat and not cost prohibitive.

Some day I will have a proper 375 bullet launcher! Scotty

A 375 Flat Liner!

I personally dont see any practical use for such, so to the question,,,,,no.

I dunno. My idea of perfection in the .375 bore size is an M70 in H&H, maybe Weatherby. Neither one is gonna be a super long range round (not that they won't do well). I'll be pretty happy with 300 grain Partitions at the top end when I get one, assuming they shoot well.

I am kinda the same mindset, although a Magnum length M70 would make for an awesome 375 RUM... Scotty

 

[375ultra]

it looks like berger is going to make this bullet so maybe nosler will follow them as they did in the .338-300 grain.
