Don't know about factory ammo, and I've yet to split a case neck, so I can't help, but i assume it would be the same as any other modern bottleneck cartridge case.
Dropped the Father-In-Laws 375 H&H into my Screwbean stockDon't think he's getting it back.
Looks like a King to me
Thanks, I'd FAR rather a classic stock in that - too much drop at the heel for my shoulder. Can feel it already.
The H&H was the hottest selling 375 for lets see.....96 years? looks like the ruger needs to top the charts for another 94 years to dethrone the H&H. Nice try, big gunner!
I agree! The H&H is still the king for a long time to come yet!

Hopefully Ruger doesn't have you on the payroll as a promoter/salesman Gate, if they do, you should be fired
But I guess paying you wouldn't be the first mistake Ruger ever made

The H&H was the old King...The Ruger is the NEW KING. Please try to keep up....
The .375 RUger sales have been staggering, far surpassing Ruger and Hornadys projections....They have had problems making them fast enough because they are selling so well!
The .375 Ruger is to the .375 H&H what the .300 WM was to the .300H&H. And while the .300 H&H is a great cartridge, they just arent' that common compared to the .300WM. The hottest selling .375 caliber rifles of the last 2 years have been chambered in .375 Ruger, not H&H, not .378 Weatherby or any of the also rans......
The NEW KING has been crowned. ALL HAIL THE NEW KING!!

Sh1t disturber or not, I think the BC bud has completely burned out his somewhat fragile and small brain
Gate has got the munchies
The EE seems to be full of "NEW KING" rifles these days. I'd say the high tide of popularity is subsiding somewhat.LONG LIVE THE NEW KING!!
Also, I am reading some interweb murmurs about brass shortages in 375Ruger. How's that going here in Canada?

I can see why some of you aren't overly enthusiastic about the CZ and Howa rifles- They aren't my first choice either, of course. However, it's interesting to see that the NEW KING has clearly made a big enough impression on other manufacturers that they want to get in on it. Understandable, as the NEW KING continues to enjoy unprecedented sales.
LONG LIVE THE NEW KING!!
So I wonder when Rigby,Krieghoff,Heym,Blaser,etc. will be chambering the Ruger?
I can definitely see a Savage in the future though. Long live the King.
Looks like a glossy pimp rifle to me.
The King does not associate with pimp rifles.
Judging by your picture posted below the only King your'e qualified to speak of is "Burger King"
So I wonder when Rigby,Krieghoff,Heym,Blaser,etc. will be chambering the Ruger?
Since they represent a tiny fraction of a percent of north american rifle sales, it's largely irrelevant.

I like Burger King
Phil Shoemaker pointed out :
Ruger sold over 8000 rifles in the first year alone!
I know of One Zambian PH who ordered a $13,500 synthetic stocked Echols' Legend in 375 Ruger.
Ruger has already sold more 375 Rugers in the first year than H&H has in the past 98. (375 H&H's) It is here to stay.
Imagine that....Ruger has sold more of it's proprietary chambered rifles in a short span, than H&H sold of their proprietary chambered rifles in 98 years!
