I've always had a soft spot for the .375 H&H. It is just one of those cartridges that performs. Adequate power for most anything on Earth with the proper bullets. Excellent accuracy. Mild recoil. No muss, no fuss. So I was a happy camper when one of our clients ordered up a Legend sporter chambered in this grand old cartridge.
Upon completion of the required metal work and stock bedding, Matt and I proceeded to take our creation down to the range for its maiden test firing, barrel break-in and load development.
The results were adequate for most purposes, don't you think?
These were the results with two different powder charges of R15 and H4895 and the 300 gr. Barnes TSX. The group on the left measures .566". The group on the right measures .166". The scope was our trusty Leupold MK-4 16x test scope.
