Sooooo, I took everything apart. Remounted the rings. Aligned and locked them in. Put scope on and leveled it. Torqued wrenched everything every step. Boresighted. Took first shot an 20 inches low. Clicked about 60, shot and 1 inch high. Set the zero stop. Ran the ballistic program and I needed...

I had removed the coupling, since that is the only way to reset the zero stop. I must say boresighting is trickier with a big ole .375 bore vs smaller ones. Harder to determine what the center is. Hoping to shoot a different scope tomorrow.

I did talk the owner of Alaska Arms and exchanged photos. Everything is set up correctly, so it is either the scope or the receiver. I had this scope on a 30-06 and had tons of upward adjustment, so maybe the receiver? I'll throw a different scope on, shoot it,,and see if there is the same issue.

"Short goes on the front and taller goes on the rear" - You Tube Ruger M77 Scope Mounting

Thank you, I will get his opinion. Its not the stop ring. I went through all 80 clicks or so. I agree it could be a receiver issue. The rings lined up fine with the alignment kit.

I just put the Alaska Arms 43/53 rings on my Swaro Z6i on my Ruger .375 Alaskan. Everything seemed fine, but I topped out the Swaro elevation and was still 1/2" low at 100yards. The scope was perfect on my 30-06, with lots of elevation left. Anyone else have this problem or a solution? The...

All .375. I would really like to sell as one lot to avoid 10 trips to UPS. Midway Blem 270 gr. 419 Bullets ($0.81/each) Barnes TSX 270gr 128 Bullets ($1.19/each) Midway Blem 300 gr. 96 Bullets ($0.81/each) Sierra Game King 250 gr 50 Bullets ($0.97/each) Nosler Partition 260 gr 25 Bullets...

I'm open to the 300 Accubond, but more than I need for elk. I have access to IMR 4350, as a trade for one of my kidneys to a guy living under the bridge in a van down by the river. One day, I'll find RL-17.

"Light" in a 375 context. Such as a 270 Barnes LRX (rather than a more traditional 300+)

Thank you all. They were included in the price as well as some bullets (a few hundred). I will get them listed on the classified and try to buy some elk/eland-appropriate bullets (light, but high B.C. for 300 yard shots.

Thank you all for the advice. In a perfect world, where one could buy brass and ammo, I would put these in a drawer. In pandemic times, one must work with what they can get access to. Still, maybe I'll just wait out the shortages rather than tackling this project. I am not in the dark on this...

I do have the cases. When I got the rifle, he gave me some fired brass as well as 50 straight ones. When I asked him about it, he said he just would use lots of case lube and the .375 die. I kinda figured there may be intermediate steps, which is why I thought I would ask on this reloading forum...

These are the straight wall basic cases that are .375 Ruger sized (https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1021375951). I just need to get them to the bottleneck shape. I am indeed shooting them in a .375 and new to reloading. Thank you

I am new to reloading, but just got 50 of the Hornady basic brass for my .375 Ruger. NO sure how to make them into normal cases. Do I just lube them up and put in the die? I have 2 dies sets, the 3 piece Lyman and the 2 piece Hornady. I appreciate any help!

z5i 2.4-12x50, 3.5-18x44 or 5-25x52? Again, thank you to all for the responses.

Thank you for all the suggestions. The main reason I have not moved the 1.7-10 over to the .375 is that I really like it on the 30-06. Maybe getting 2 is the right answer. I also considered getting a z5i 3.5-18x44 for the 30-06 since it is so light. I have the z6i 3-18x50 on my 7RemMag, but...

All good points, thank you. I am starting off with both rifles in Western US/Alaska before booking the Africa. Right now I would see the .375 for Elk/Moose in Oregon (both Rosies and Rocky)/Idaho/Wyoming and the 30-06 for Antelope/Mulies/Blacktails in the similar states. I was planning on...

Wondering on suggestions for scoping two rifles. I have a .375 Ruger Guide and 30-06 Weatherby. I figure I can cover all hunting need (US and foreign) with this combo. Right now I have a Swaro Z6i 1.7-10 x 42 on the 30-06, and can either get a scope for the ruger, or move the 1.7 to the ruger...
