Anyone ever use barnes tripple shock 235g. in a 375 H&H? I was planning on loading som up for a plains game hunt in May.

Thanks
:bonk:
 
Don't waste your time and money.I mean this well.A 235gr will give you nothing over a 250gr,except a shorter barrel life.I have tried and tested them all and eventually settled for my favorite hunting load which is the extremely accurate and effective 250gr Sierra Gameking.

I load for an average of 2750 fps,which gives me the same speed and trajectory from my .375 as a 168gr bullet from a .30-06,but with MUCH more punch.What more could you want for PG..? Sighted in at 2.5 to 3 inches high at 100 metres,you have a point-blank range of close to 300 metres with this bullet.

Good luck with your testing.
 
Thanks alot for the input it's much appriciated, now I just have to wait to get out of Iraq to build some loads.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ

What is the minimum you would take.

I have a Chapuis 450-400 double that looks brand new and shoots well, never been hunted from what I can tell. I am willing to part with it as I have a 375 H&H Sodia on it's way from Dorleac & Dorleac. I am looking for $9,250 for it and if you are interested, I am happy to send you some pictures. Regards,
Steve
