.375 h&h magnum bullet pushed into case
range and accuracy are'nt much of the issue.... its the deforming/pushing in of the bullet, common to the magnum cartridges... accuracy and trajectory are very good if the last few bullets arent deformed

.375 h&h magnum bullet pushed into case
but there is still the problem of a smashed lead tip, definitely affecting accuracy...as it mushrooms.

.375 h&h magnum bullet pushed into case
so ive been enjoying my new cz 550 safari in .375 h&h, trying new loads and all. the gun loads, fires, extracts fine, looks stunning, and is a joy to shoot..except, when i load the magazine full, all the bullets obviously are smaking the front of the mag and either pushing the bullet in the case, or squashing the exposed lead tip. from what ive read and researched, this is common on magum rifles. well, it sucks in my book. there has to be a fix for this. im thinking, maybe a soft pad on the front end of the mag, maybe something to hold the bullets in place on the shoulder in the mag. im surprised something like this isnt built into the rifle, as its an obvious problem with magnums and the gun was dang expensive. has anyone developed a fix for this???....some ideas please

case tumbler
just called harbor freight, and they have a few in stock at the somerset store. looks like a nice quality one for about $60. im going to pass by after work and check it out. @ irizzo....i went the other day to bullet hole to check out reloading supplies, and to my surprise, they had a decent selection of bullets/primer/powders.... and at a pretty good price. $28 for a lb of imr 4350...cabelas had it for $25. thats a do-able price, as it would cost me $30 in gas to drive to cabelas and back. they even had .375 bullets for the .375 H&H im loading.

case tumbler
ive been calling gun and sports store all morning trying to find a case tumbler. no one stocks any. does anyone know of any stores selling one. im in north new jersey. if not, another trip to cabelas it is, and these cabelas trips are killing me because i really just cant help myself there, and i end up spending $500 to justify the two hour trip.....so yeah, case tumbler

reloading supplies
got all i needed from the bullet hole...they surprisingly had everything i needed...even had .375 bullets, and a decent selection. and to top it all off, the guy was actually nice this time. he even smiled a few times, and threw an occasional joke.

reloading supplies
i im in newark. i just found out the bullet hole has a decent supply. i never did like ordering things online. if they dont have what i need, ill just take that lovely ride back to cabelas. by the way, what ever happened to the cabalas that was supposed to open in the medowlands?

reloading supplies
just picked up a lyman reloading press kit from cabelas. i didnt get any bullets/powder/primer/brass while i was there, as i wasnt ready to choose what i wanted yet.......So....does anyone in nj stock reloading supplies. im loading .30-06 and .375 H&H. ive saved bags and bags of 30.06 from factory ammo and more than enough .375 H&H, so bullets/powder/primers are what i need. hoping i dont have to take that long ride back to cabelas....actually that wouldnt be so bad, i could spend all day there, and spend all my money too

i went to efingers to get some info on the gun, and they showed minimal interest in putting any effort into its availability. i got a price, and once i asked for its availibility, i was told he only thought i wanted the price and didnt think i wanted to know if it was obtainable....??? what???. after that, he lost all interest in making phone calls and what not. kinda blew me off. then i got his attention again, and told him i wanted it, and he went to his little cave and told me he couldnt find one, came on here, ira shot me an email... then a phone call, with a voicemail stressing that there was two left in the us, ordered it on a faith based order before i could get a deposit to him (i was going in a steelhead trip to lake ontario) and i had it in a week. efinger called me two days after i got it, as im polishing the beautiful walnut stock, to tell me they cant get it..(i left them my number)..i chuckled and told them i had it on my lap, im sure the fool didnt believe me, the joke... and sale is on them...... the bullet hole, those losers didnt even give me the time of day to even try, amazed that they even exist...so to that end..all i want is some old fashioned salesmanship...executed properly, its an instant sale...ira must have read "the law of sucess" book... which i highly suggest
