Took my Satin Chrome 44mag to the range along with my 375SM. Had a blast (literally) both guns are fun to shoot, but the 375SM kicks butt. I was proofing my loads and I'm fairly pleased. I need to up the powder a little but the gun shoots well. Had two rounds out of 30 jump crimp, I may have had some lube in the case neck, I don't know.
I ran into a guy with a 15-2, trying out a gun show acquisiton. He didn't have an tools or a gap gage and was going to go to a local smith. I told him about this site and about EWK and the fine high quality tools he has. I hope he will drop in and have a look.
Anyway, here are some pics of my outing.
First pic is the 44mag at 20yds off hand, 240 gn XTP on top of 10.5gn unique. I had to drop my point of aim as I was shooting high.
The second pic is the 375 SM at 50yds off hand, 220 gn Sierra FP ontop of 17.5gn of 2400. I'm having some time getting used to a red dot sight, so I don't think that the large pattern is the gun or the loads, its me, but I'll get the feel of it. Quite a loud report from the 375, rang my ears a bit right thru a set of high quality ear plugs.
Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

Nice report Scorpio. The 375 is really a fun round to shoot I have found. I have one also in a United Sporting Arms Seville and you really know when that one goes off compared to the DW revolver. I have found that getting the 375 dialed in takes some time hand loading to what your gun likes, the faster you push them the better they get.

Sounds like you had a good day shooting there. That .375 will zing your ears. I use ear plugs with ear muffs on those SM pistols.

Thanks for the report. I love both my .375's, in DW and USA versions.
