Evening gang,

I've picked myself up a Sako Brown Bear in glorious .375 H&H, let's please not get into the rabbit hole of CRF rifle versus push feed versus Sako hybrid. I just like the calibre and am a sucker for Sako rifles. With that out of the way, looking for input on what you like for ammo in this calibre. My hunting will consist of deer in Ontario bush country north of North Bay area, moose should the MNR smile on me one day and black bear.

I know reloading is the way to go with this calibre to spare expenses and get the most out of it, but a busy work schedule and other priorities are keeping me away from the reloading bench lately.

Open to any input you may have CGN.
 
For Canadian game, plain old Federal blue box 270 or 300 gr. RN is good stuff. Accurate, about as cheap as .375 ammo can be, and reliable. No need for premium bullets in this caliber, you aren't going to see any benefit on deer, and might get quicker kills with the plain old soft nose bullets vs premium controlled expansion types built to penetrate larger game. I have to admit I have no experience with deer and this cartridge though. I have shot a couple elk and black bear with handholds. I shot one moose with Federal factory 300 gr RN at 300 long paces, penetration was complete, internal damage adequate without ruining much meat, and results instant.
