if it were me id keep the .356 mine is one of my favorite rifles. Its a little more versitile then a .375 hits a little harder and is flatter shooting. I guess im a little predudice  though as the .35s are my favorite rifle calibers. Ive killed quite a bit of game with them and cast bullets.

I agree, I'd keep the 356 Win.  It's a better cartridge.  But then I prefer the 38-55 to the 375.  I sure do like my 356 tho.

I'd keep the .356 as well, but if you're in Canada, maybe we could make a deal on the .375. 8)

Keep the .375 and contact me regarding the .356 Win. I have a ton of brass for it and now need a rifle.

I have factory ammo to get rid of, contact me if you have a need. Make me an offer on orders of 3 or more . I would also consider trades for tc barrels.

Thanks
Steve

I got this at a good price and always hoped to find a 356 but have finally given up.

The .375 has impressive power coming out of the muzzle, but the rifle cartridge ballistic charts contained in The Shooter's Bible show that at just 100 yards, it has dropped down to just 1,500 foot pounds of power.  So, why even bother???  The .356 is more versatile, and just a better cartridge all the way around.  Keep it. Dump the .375.
