have one of these?
« on: August 13, 2003, 01:15:26 AM »
I've found a 375 Winchester 14" barrel for sale. I already have a set of dies.
What is your opinion of the 375 Win,,,better in 14" pistol setup,,or a 20 something inch carbine stocked T/C?
thanks, Alan in ga.

alan in ga;

I have the .375 Win in the 12" hunter barrel. Great performer and hard hitting. IMO it is very well suited to the Contender/Encore single shots.

I'm using mine this year again on deer.

Have fun.

Dave

Buy that sucker!  It is a great round in a 14" barrel.  Have only had a scope on mine for about 2 months, but it is quickly becoming one of my favorite barrels.  I use IMR4198 and Hornady 220gr flat nose bullets.

Buy it you won't be sorry.I have had my 14" with a 4x scope for 3 or 4 years and it is great caliber.The 200 and 220 gr pills work the best in mine.

I have a stainless .375 Win Super 14, and love it.  Lots of fun to shoot, accurate, easy to load for.  Have been using 220gr. Hornady's with IMR 4198 (probably same load as Bullseye), and they work great.  The straight, long case is simple to load and reload.  Haven't seen that many for sale, only on occassion (everyone who owns them must feel the same way as I feel-can't let them go).  I purchased mine through Auction Arms, and paid about $205 for it brand new.  By all means...buy it!

Enjoy
How'd you like a peek at my 14-incher? (Contender, that is)
