I feel like I killed the thread with my comments, sorry guys I didnt mean to kill the mood here! Im really stoked to see how the 375 performs and was hoping to see some more pics or feedback on it.
The 375 Holland & Holland has performed well for a long long time. The 375 ruger has not. Longevity usually tells the story.
The 375 ruger will go the way of the 25 WSSM (or whatever they call it).
In other words if you want a Classic Rifle in a Classic Cartridge buy a Holland & Holland. If not buy a ruger. But if you do, save your brass.

The NEW KING shares similar performance as the H&H (although in a more compact, updated case) so anything that has worked for the H&H can be applied to the NEW KING.
One of the great things about the NEW KING is that sales volumes of rifles have been so overwhelmingly huge. This ensures a good supply of ammo and brass, for a very long time. Probably the next 100 years or so. But you probably don't have to worry about 100 year supply, since you will probably be dead.

Thats why I now have 2 Kings, gotta use my brass supply up somehow.
Doubt if I'll live to make 100.... thats only 45 years away....

nothing wrong with the New King mind you..
If you're lucky enought you will drop it in the bush and never find it again

Yup! HOT!!
Only thing is, it starts that vicious cycle of having to upgrade the rest of a guys battery. A guy'd need a new 270/3006 and on and on...
Laugh it up happy boy ....... You'd buy one in a lefty.

Depending on the vintage, some of the newer 70's had quality control issues that would make a Norinco proud. I cut my big bore teeth on a pre64 375 H&H M70. That was a big, heavy gun, but smooth as butter and a darn good shooter. Fun as hell on rabbits! I have been watching Pauls for awhile now, just trying to figure out which nut I can spare as a down payment. Any good 375 is just downright fun to play with.
