I finally got out and got to shoot the ladder I loaded for my 375 ruger
I am hoping to fine a load in the 2400-2500 fps range with a 235g Speer hot-core
Not that full house loads are too much or damage the meat. Just wanted to play with something
Hopefully get some meat testing this spring bear season.
Hawkeye M77 Alaskan
375 Ruger
VX3 2.5-8x36mm
200yrds
235g Speer hot core
416 Ruger brass (necked down and annealed)
CCI 250 mag primer
IMR 4198
COL 3.325”
54.0g @ 2391 fps
54.5g @ 2424
55.0g @ 2430
55.5g @ 2442
56.0g @ 2469
56.5g @ 2445
57.0g @ 2518
57.5g @ 2493
58.0g @ 2509
58.5g @ 2545
59.0g @ 2579
59.5g @ 2573
60.0g @ 2623
60.5g @ 2605
61.0g @ 2626
I think I am going to do some group loads in the 54.5-56.5g range
See where that gets me.
