I have Ruger M77 RSM rifles in 416 Rigby and 375 H&H and they're great shooting rifles. I see the 458's in this model offered occasionally was there any other caliber Ruger made in RSM?
 
Well you are going to need the Express versions. The baby brothers;)
 
270 win, 30-06, 7mm rem mag, 300 win mag, 338 win mag. And 5 or 6 were made in 25-06. One couple has 4 of them.

You trying to initiate a fire sale?
 
I just bought a Ruger RSM 375 H&H and was wondering if anyone who has one can say what factory ammo they’ve tested and found shoots well. I’m going to start going through several but thought perhaps others’ learning could save me some time and money. First Africa hunt is for the bigger plains game - have 7 mm mag I’ll also take - and next perhaps Buffalo.

My RSM in 375 doesn't seem to be fussy at all, it is accurate with everything I have tried, one of my all time favorites this rifle.
Factory Norma loaded with 300 grain Swift A-frames
Factory Hornady 300 grain DGX Bonded
Factory Federal 300 grain Powershok
Factory Winchester 300 grain Nolser Solids
Hand loaded 350 grain Woodleighs
Hand loaded 300 grain Norma Oryx
Hornady 300 grain DGX Bonded again but hand loads
It's taken 7 buffalo, around 10 scrub bulls, countless brumbies and pigs

I use Barnes factory loads in all of mine and never had an issue. Did someone say “little brothers”

See you are from Denmark - see quite a few Danes where I stalk in Scotland - great hunters.
The Harkilia stuff works well in Africa - I have a bit for use here in UK.
I am again looking for 600 Nitro dies preferably RCBS 1 inch. The set I purchased previously are 1 1/2 inch and do not fit my die. Another member has graciously taken them off my hands. If anyone happens to have a set of 600 Nitro Dies that will fit my Rockchucker Supreme RCBS press, please shoot me a message and thanks in advance for any assistance you may have to offer!
