You scoff at the 375 H&H as a deer rifle. I use to hunt on the coast of Alaska, Lots of little Sitka Black tails there. Yeah they are small but there are critters in the area that arn't. Those big bears like to steal you deer kills. Anyway the 375 zips right through those deer without doing a lot of damage. And you are ready to take on the critters that might want your deer. Beats carrying two rifles.

I still carry mine sometimes elk hunting when I'm backing up my grandkids with their smaller rifles. I make my own jacketed bullets for my 375, really cuts down of the cost. Just use 3/8s copper tubing. Place them in the mode and pour in the lead. I then run them through a 375 bullet sizer to make sure they are perfectly round. Suckers shoot pretty good.
