Gun Descriptions

About The .375 Ruger Ammo is a rimless, standard-length rifle bullet designed and introduced into the markets in 2007. The primary reason this bullet was manufactured was to take down a large dangerous game. A unique case was designed for the .375 Ruger Ammo using a rimless design with a base diameter of 13.5mm to allow the bullet to have a greater case capacity. The overall length of the .375 Ruger Ammo is 84.8mm, and the bullet diameter measures 9.5mm. This cartridge can produce energy levels of 4,835 ft. lbf while traveling at a velocity of 2,840 feet per second. The .375 Ruger Ammo has a greater capacity cartridge, and the 'short fat' bullet efficiency allows the .375 Ruger Ammo to travel faster by 150 feet per second compared to the H%H variant. Manufacturer To compete against the .375 H&H Magnum Ammo, The Ruger designed and developed the .375 Ruger Ammo in 2007 using a rimless standard rifle cartridge. Uses The crown of being the most popular and loved cartridge for hunting the big dangerous game has been owned by the .375 H&H Magnum Ammo for almost 100 years. However, the .375 Ruger Ammo is the latest contender for this crown and might succeed in overtaking it. The .375 Ruger Ammo can take down any big game species in the range of 250 yards accurately and ethically.

The .416 Ruger is a .41 caliber (10.6 x 65.5mm), rimless, bottlenecked cartridge designed as a joint venture by Hornady and Ruger in 2008. Designed to equal the 416 Rigby and 416 Remington magnum but in a standard length 30-06 length action. The standard length actions are less expensive to manufacture thus making a dangerous game caliber available to a greater amount of customers. Unfortunately gun manufacturers have not followed Ruger's lead. This also applies to the 375 Ruger. The 416 Ruger is suitable for the biggest land animals and dangerous game. The cartridge is based on the .375 Ruger case which was necked up to accept a .416 in (10.6 mm) bullet. It was designed as a dangerous game cartridge particularly for use in Alaska and Africa. The .416 Ruger duplicates the performance of the .416 Rigby and the .416 Remington Magnum. All three cartridge fire a 400 gr (26 g) bullet at 2,400 ft/s (730 m/s) generating 5,115 ft⋅lbf (6,935 J) of energy. However, unlike the Remington or Rigby .416s, the Ruger .416 can be chambered in a standard length action, as the cartridge has a length of 3.34 inches. The cartridge has the same diameter of belted magnum cases but without the belt. This provides the cartridge a larger propellant capacity than a standard length magnum cartridge of the same length. The rimless design allows for smoother feeding and extraction of the cartridge. The .416 Ruger is chambered in the bolt-action Ruger M77 Hawkeye "African" and "guide gun" rifles, and Krieghoff rifles. No other manufacturer currently chambers this cartridge. Ammunition is available from Hornady and Buffalo Bore.
