Typical Uses

The .375 Ultra Mag is a centerfire rifle cartridge, delivering very powerful energy on target, which shapes where it fits between varmint work, big-game hunting, and precision shooting. A representative 300-grain loading leaves the muzzle at roughly 2800 fps and carries about 5225 ft-lbs of energy, with a G1 ballistic coefficient near 0.398. Those numbers place it squarely in its intended performance envelope. Based on its energy and trajectory, ethical ranges work out to roughly medium game such as deer to about 400 yards; larger game to about 500 yards — always within the limits of your own accuracy and local regulations. Recoil is generally stout for the class, and our database tracks 1 factory loading so you can compare bullet weights and velocities for your specific use. Figures here are for reference and informational use — always verify against manufacturer data.
