375 Ruger Ammo

[PENDLETON AMMUNITION]

We completed inventory today and we still have some 375 Ruger ammo loaded with Swift A-Frames and Barnes TSX in stock.
I know its been a hard one to find for the last 4-5 years, but we have a bit left for anyone still looking for it.

Just spent some great time speaking with Steve at Pendleton. He has been told by contacts that .375 Ruger brass will not be made for 4-5 years. Hornady makes 150,000 pieces of .300 WINMAG for every one piece of .375 Ruger. I ordered 4 boxes of his product. To say I am livid with Hornady/Ruger for not backing their cartridge doesn't even scratch the surface.

Why would you back a cartridge when you can just sell the next flavor of the month?

Well, I can tell you I will NEVER buy another cartridge/flavor of the month!!!!! So how does THAT business model work for them?!??!?

I thought its legs were adequate with Boddington writing about the cartridge in his books, and Robertson testing it and smacking Ruger around for the initial boat paddle stock. Obviously I was wrong. I have enough brass to use my brace of Ruger Alaskans.

We sold out of this ammo today... hope everyone has good luck with it.
The online team has taken availability off the website now... if we ever get any more brass to load the ammo I will make sure we post it here.

How can this be true? Factory Hornady ammunition is readily available for the 375 Ruger. Therefore brass is being made. I get it that very little brass is available for hand loaders, but it’s not the end of the world. Buy a few boxes of loaded ammunition and have fun at the range.

I suppose their last batch of brass was 95% held to load for ammo. In NOV of last year there was brass available for 3-4 days. Apparently that was all they wanted to release to reloads. I am sure the mark-up is much higher on loaded ammo. I bought 2 boxes of Frontier ammo today, as well as some from Pendleton.

How long there will be ammo in the stores - who knows. I will try and buy two boxes per month until I can't.

Just to toot Pendleton's horn, I ordered yesterday, they loaded the ammo and are shipping it out today!
