I finally got my 375 JDJ barrel Thursday.I machined me a neck sizing die at work to use until I get a set of dies.I finally got to shoot it today here at the house just a 50 yard range.Man this thing is great a 220gr hornady over 50 grains of H-4895 will go inside one ragged hole if I do my part.I can't wait to go to range in the morning to shoot at 100 / 150 yards.

I shot mine again the other day using forming loads (Varget and 225gr Hornady Spire Point). The accuracy was amazing at 100 yards with a 4X Redfield scope...was literally shooting 1" groups that were just one big ragged hole. A fella several benches over was shooting small caliber rifle at the same distance. For a little while he quit shooting but never left his bench and looking at something through his scope...so I kept checking to see iffin he needed to post targets or what. When I was finished he walked to my bench and looked the JDJ over...then said...that thing is amazing, what a shooter!

Patch and Dan B, that caliber shoots better than it should. I use the Hornady 270 gr bullets and shoot under an inch all day long at 100 yds! Can't wait to try it on Moose.
