My son bought a dgr 375hh. Sub moa fast bolt throw and i could care less about crf. Way over hyped feature. Weatherby feeds great and is a high quality great shooter
I have one as a starting point for loading for my double. It also allows me to use loads that dont regulate. Its no double but is quite accurate and a pleasure to shoot offhand. It was a good buy and good rifle to hunt with.
Get a 45 cal. 454 or 460. Then get lehigh or ceb solids. If u can get the velocity over 1600 fps use 325gr swift aframes. Both my buff were killed with aframes. The 454 load was 325gr running just over 1600 fps out of a fa83. The bfr 460 i used on the second buff was 7.5”. 300gr aframes...

Yeah. Doesnt go near as deep as a wfn/lfn solid and doesnt do near as much damage as an aframe or barnes so i dont use em. Not great at anything but ok at penetration and damage but it is neat to see the x shaped cut in the tissue.
Yeah. We did it on large bovines. The monometals handily out penetrate the hardcast. Ran 500 gr hardcasts on one buff out of a bighorn 89 at 1825 fps, with 440 gr at 1725 fps and ceb 400’s at 1760 fps. Both hard casts were on the offside shoulder on the hide. The cebs cut through and kicked...
