The 9.3 and 375 are nice for deer they don't damage much meat and still shoot pretty flat. When I was 12 me and dad built a 358norma mag on a 03 Springfield, had John van Patten bore the barrel out and a few other things. Great rifle shot great, it was for a elk hunt we were planning. Then my parents got divorced, I shot some deer with it. I would do a 375 if I did it today.
The .375 Ruger is a fantastic and efficient cartridge. With my 23" barrel, I've pushed a 300 grain to 2700, but it's not necessary to do so. My 20" ran 60-66 fps slower. My pet load that I will be taking for buffalo is 2595, and pressure is under 60k if the simulation is correct.
Sestoppelman, you may be the first person I have come across on here who doesn't want a double!
my buddy in Hawaii built a Browning A-bolt in 375 ruger he uses it for all the stuff there. Funny they have feral cows but has not shot one yet with the 375, he says it a pain packing all the meat to the truck. I have him a winch idea he may try lol.
I know right it's almost weird he doesn't want one lol, guess someone recoil shy may not like one but they don't have to be big magnums.

Dont think I am any more recoil shy than most, its just not something I yearn for.
I dont want a double, I think they are ugly personally. But let's be glad we have the choices we do!
Your cat likes guns, mine too!
I do yearn for it. I started with a .300 Win Mag and 12 gauges when I was 11-12. All my rifles have "magnum" in the name except the .375 lol I love the boomers.
What kind of cat is that?
I have been looking for a 86 35 Winchester I can afford for years. Seen I see the 33 a lot more. Some thing I like about the 35win in a 86 seems right. Think I have some brass somewhere.
it looks mixed with something like a native cat with a house cat.
