Can't wait to get a scope, and an Accurate Mold so I can sling some medium bore lead.

I have more Ruger products than anything else. Can't wait to get it to the range, even if it will be with those "J" word projectiles.

Thanks Dennis, now I'm saving for a mold, and I am going to put a nice hunting scope on it.

Same here, and plan on getting A LOT more.

Put a box of shells through it this morning, good for windage, shot about 3 1/2" low. First 3 shots went into less than an inch at 50 yards. Look forward to putting some optics on this rifle. Recoil felt less than my 300 Win Mag and 200gr bullets than the 375 Ruger with the 300s at 2400fps.

You can't go wrong with an accurate mold. I recommend getting a mold with 2 different molds in the same block. It only costs about $20 more if I remember correctly. Since I don't think you'll be shooting super high volumes out of a 375 Ruger, a 2 design 2 cavity mold should be just perfect. It's nice to have options !

I run anywhere from 50 to 150 rounds through it about every 3 months, so I went with a brass two cavity.

Those look very very nice. We will need a full range report when available.

Absolutely! I am shooting a close facsimile of this bullet I purchased from the Bull Shop, they are very accurate.
