Mine 300 WM GG is just very picky when it comes to ammo. It was a 1 to 1.75 gun with almost all ammo except the Federal 180 Non Typical Whitetail and Berger 230 Grain Hybrid OTM (I only fired a handful of these because I’m afraid they’re over pressuring my chamber with very tight bolt extraction). But with those two rounds I could get 3 touching out of 5 and the flyers within .5 MOA. Anyone have a suggestion on a replacement since they don’t make the NT anymore?

I have a 375 ruger and the gun shoots great.
Ruger makes a quality gun at a great price.

Im a guide in Alaska and carry the guide gun in .375. with barnes 300gr tsx bullets and H4350 I have routinely shot groups under half inch at 100 yard. It is a very balanced rifle with very little kick for the caliber and for those of you who like to talk about a rifle before you try it, try it first and you wont sound like boys on the school yard kicking dirt.

“Reading field and stream for gun advice is like taking love advice from a hooker.”

As with gunsmiths shooters always seem to decline advice from professionals.

For those that expect more accuracy out of a 375, I wonder how much dangerous game is shot at over 200 yards. Must be real dangerous if your not willing to get closer to it. Reliability and knockdown are the key with your life on the line not benchrest accuracy.

Another fine belly flop by Ruger. Reading field and stream for gun advice is like taking love advice from a hooker.

What are you expecting of the rifle? I know that this web page is dedicated to accuracy but this rifle is not for accuracy. It is for dangerous game. It must be perfectly reliable and deliver a heavy bullet at short range, quickly. The caliber used in the tests was the heaviest, 375 Ruger that approximates the 375 H&H. Also it was factory ammo used in the tests and in this caliber there is not a lot to choose from. With a hand load and some tweaking of the components of the round I am sure that it would do under an inch. It does what it was designed to do. Protect the owners hide from fang and claw.

This goes to show that Field and Stream can and will be bought. I guess that Ruger was the highest bidder. There is so much other innovation going on, and some insanely accurate rifles being made, and they choose this??

Agreed Ruger knows very little about quality or accurate firearms. Now Field and Stream on the other hand knows absolutely nothing about guns at all, they have not had a sinlge real indepentant review that ive seen in years, they normall just spout advertised points over and over. Guns like this are not what we should be producing. We need more quieter user friendly guns not inefficient guns that simple destroy a new shooters hearing.
