Someone told me the 375 -06 ai was awesome kinda like the 375 hawk .I thought about that one in a 1895 winchester .THE 405 win with a longer throat and 400 gr bullets at 2000 fps has sone knockdown power .I was told by old gunsmith in Alaska that the rear locking lugs of win 1895 wouldnt work with the 400 whelen .In Alaska I fully trusted my 416 rem mag for charging and bad stuff that bites .

If the 95 can be chambered in 30/06, then it can be barreled in .400 Whelen.
The .416 is in a different world altogether.
Too much recoil for me, nowadays.
My .375 Ack. does 2,472fps with 300gr. and 2,650fps with 270gr. TSX.

Jerome, do you think my last post in rough camping must maybe shift as an article?

Good afternoon,
I'm trying to get in contact with Mr Butch Searcy. I have the opportunity to buy one of his rifles chambered in 577 nitro Express however the seller does not have any of the paperwork with the information about what ammunition or bullet weight was used to regulate it. I know he is not making firearms anymore but I wanted to reach out after seeing one of your post about him.

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
