375 Whelen Improved?

[jpr9954]

Is anyone familiar with the .375 Whelen Improved? I came across one and was wondering if it is worth bidding on.

As I understand it, the .375 Whelen is based upon the the .30-06 cartridge necked up to .375.

I must admit I have a thing for obscure calibers.

Not much difference between that and the 9,3x62. Both outstanding cartridges

The improved will be better for head spacing. If I remember correctly it does about 2200 with a 300 grain, maybe a little more.
