Why would u want a RUM when u can get a H&H. Infact why bother with either when u could get a wtby.

The 375 RUM gives 300fps over the H&H which is important in a varmint rifle. :lol:
And rifles and brass in H&H are cheaper than the whetherby. The 375 RUM is only 60fps behind the whetherby. Can get a rechamber to RUM in a normal H&H rifle cheaper than buying a whetherby too.




Seem to have got round that weatherby thing for the time being? :roll: :D

375HH mate. Plenty of them around to make them cheap enough to pick up a 2nd hand one. Plenty of gun for buff without being too feirce in the recoil department.

I would think that a 338wm would be marginal for buff. Speak to Wiz, he's used a few cals on the buff up there.
