I've had the .375HH since 1995. Winchester and Remington Bolts. Earlier on I started with the push feed 70 with a nice long barrel. I went to the range. I went to Fort Lewis Saturday range for the civilians even though I was not a civilian. Often I would show up there just to shoot on a Saturday if I was home. It was a less than 2 inch grouper no matter heavy or light bullets (the light ones were actually better in accuracy and they were just .375 HH 270gr Core Lokts from the Green Country. They would stay under 1.5" at 100 as if the rifle was made more them.
Last .375HH I have bought is on the recall list. It's the CDL 100 Anniversary production of the .375 Holland and Holland Magnum from England in 1912 or whatever. It has only a 22" barrel which is the length of barrel most people seem to hate for being too short (or too long in other circumstances) and it has the ugly huge recoil pad that seems to cut out the best part of a Walnut buttstock.
On the bench it shoots like any other .375HH Magnum from Africa or North America or whatever classical continent and time: Always under 2" at 100 yards with any factory ammunition of any weight from 270 to 300.
I have not seen the sort of recent .375 Ruger in a Hawkeye or other or other. I have not seen a Ruger .375 ammo casing or ammunition. I have read the published ballistics. I have concluded the .375 Ruger has about a hundred more years of testing before my vote is in.
