I’m considering cutting my 375 H&H barrel from 24” to 22”. I’m using H4350 powder to reload for it. Has anyone tested there 375 H&H to see how many fps cutting 2 inches or even more from the barrel? Thanks.
 
My gunsmith is cutting down a 375 for me to 20” as soon as it arrives. No eta from Blaser at this point. But I’ll post up the velocity with Barnes factory ammo when it does.
 
My Sako has a 22” and gets an even 2550 fps with a 300gr Barnes.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
