I have looked high and low for bullets for my 375 win and have found no flat point .375 bullets except the high dollar hawk and barnes original bullets.I have hardly ever seen any of the Serria 200 gr flat points .I use to shoot a ton of the hornady 220 gr flat points.The single shot 235 gr speer bullets are even very hard to find these days.There was a guy who took the hornady 270 gr and made them into flat points with a dremil tool.I may end of doing that myself.I found some 270 gr hornady bullets finally.I guess cast bullets is my next option.I have shot a ton of loads out of my 375 win but now its been pretty quite.email me at [email protected] if you know where to get any.The last time I asked for 405 brass and three guys bought it from under me behad a chance.

You might have to back order them thru Midway....or just buy a bullet mould and start making your own. I'm down to my last couple of boxes of Sierra 200gr bullets and that's my plan.

I know up here Wholesale sports has lot's of the 220gr Hornady's I shoot them in my H&H loaded down to 2400fps makes a good deer slug. I think they ship to the U.S they now have stores down there too in the PNW.But I can't remember what the stores name is. Wholesale Sports is now owned by UFA and they bought a small American sporting goods chain in the PNW.
But it is very hard to beat a good 250gr Cast bullet and much Cheaper too, to and that goes for my H&H not even the little .375 win.

Just get some beartooth bullets. Call up Marshall, tell him what you have and what you need.. I use his bullet with 32 gr. Of 1680 and get better than jacketed results.

 

[dpe.ahoy]

Finally, someone else that has used A 1680! I thought I was the only one. I can find the Serria 200's but have seen no Hornady 220's. Just tryed Natchez again last week and have 400 on back order with them. I have three 38-55's and two 375's with bore sizes all over the place, I need different sizes around. My 38-55 CB really liked the 220 Horn and 1680 powder loads, but she's kind of a pig, she likes everything I've feed her. ;D 8) DP

You might consider cast bullets. I designed a 235-grain gas checked bullet specifically for this cartridge's unique considerations, the TLC379-235-RF.

If you are not ready to cast your own yet, you will eventually with a rifle like this because the bullet shortage will never get better, check with these fellows who cast my designs:

Simple: go to Hornady's website and order. Sorry if you fainted at the price... but, sometimes supply is more important than price. They also have tools to find retailers or mail order houses, where better prices might be found, even if you have to backorder 'em.

 

[Dr. A]

I've got over 300 Hornady's available on my shelf, but long ago started casting. I got the RCBS 250gr. before Ranch Dog developed his and may still get his. I've got 1000 cast up and am going to load up some tonight for an upcoming pig hunt. 1680 is the velocity and accuracy champ bar none according to Marshall Stanton of Beartooth. I'll agree and go one step farther. It does it with less pressure! Rel 7 works well, but at too high a pressure. Max of the 1680 runs at 37gr. for Marshall, but that was too hot for me. That carried his 250gr. bullet about 2350fps. I prefer mine down around 2100fps (32 or 33 gr. of 1680)

dgr416,

yep, I'm in the same boat, I need 4 more boxes. I'm on the "wish list" at 6 different places waiting for the 220-gr Hornady's to arrive. One of the places said "available mid-March" so we'll see.

Cheers,

Carl

My Win BB 94 shoots the 220 Hornady well, but I couldn't locate any last Spring, so I went with Beartooth 265's ( for now) That was before the www.thebullshop.com had Ranchdog's 235gr bullets available. I like the 265, and I use 22.5gr 2400 for about 1750fps. I don't think the Hornady 220 can "beat" any good cast bullet on game myself, they are pretty soft, but will slay the mighty whitetail with dispatch!
Having said all that, I don't think the 220's will ever be available again, so might as well go with cast! Good luck!

 

[Dr. A]

I'm a little amazed at those so reluctant to go with cast. I'll put in this one more plug. If you go with Ranch Dog's stuff or Beartooth, the work has been done for you. Even loads have been outlined and can be gotten. The performance of a cast boolit with today's powders and a big bore will shock you into becoming a believer. The main difference I see if you don't hit CNS is that the animal will not be as concerned with being hit and will not run as far. The hit doesn't seem as painful...
