If you would place your feet at 12 (left foot) And 3 right foot Bend your left knee just a little And lean into the rifle just past your bent knee And then you can roll with the recoil Great video
Id call that more of an view than review. Nice looking rifle overall. The bolt is like the post 64 model 70 Winchester in the appearance of the extraxtor and lug arrangement. I like it but the detachable mag on this rifle is a sin. Ive got the Ruger Alaskan in 375 and prefer the control feed. Also got an Rigby 416 mauser and its an huge rifle with massive reciever. I find the small Ruger Alaskan much handier
I also have a first run Alaskan in .375 (no muzzle break) and it is just so bloody rugged and reliable. I cant say its a lightweight because fully loaded with a scope and a 9rd ammo belt on the stock it weighs 10.2 lbs. It is no worse in perceived recoil impulse than my 7.5lb Winchester extreme weather in .30-06 375 Ruger is a great round for me.
I’ve always wanted a 375 but couldn’t afford the H&H the Mossberg came along and I bought one some said it was plastic garbage but I thought it has to shoot a bullet I looked in the barrel and it looked like it had been shot at least 20 times it was filthy I cleaned on it for an hour and it still didn’t look all that good the crown look like shit wasn’t at all square and had carbon built up in it a new gun doesn’t have this anyway took it and shot it 5 times and it turned my arm purple it was way to light brought it home and decided I would keep it I took the stock and filled all the voids with fiberglass resin and fishing sinkers the back stock I stuffed wheel weights in it and brought the weight up to 11 lbs I fixed the crown I put hash marks on the iron sight so I could adjust it I don’t think I will put a scope on it because it kicks so hard shooting the Hornady 270 grain DGX it will hit dead center of the bullseye at 35 yards with the iron sights the barrel is still rough inside I may lap it eventually but it’s nice to have a rifle that will drop anything on the planet it has quite a bit more fpe than the 338 and about 200 fps faster than the H&H but more recoil.
mossberg, and ALL rifles need a safety that locks the bolt close, otherwise ...walk 10 feet and the bolt is open, filled with trash, and the cartridge has fallen out.
Great video, man. Been on the fence about this 375 Ruger. Some folks say it’s more powerful than the 338 win mag, which I own, but idk, that 338 slaps’em hard, but I can’t say for sure, having never tested the 375 ruger. Any input from you guys, and even y’all here in the comments, would be greatly appreciated. Just sub’d to the channel btw.
Hi thanks for the comments. I would say the 375 Ruger is definitely more powerful than a 338. Look at it this way…the 375 is the minimum caliber allowed to hunt dangerous game in some African countries. But unless you plan on going to Africa or hunt brown bears I think the 338 is more than capable and probably has a ballistic advantage at longer ranges. Having said all that I think the 375 Ruger is pretty awesome and I just wanted one😉
@@lopeztho 375 has some fantastic long range i use a 375 chetac custom and i reload high bc bullets into the ruger but i also have a 338-378 weatherby whoch out performs any other 338 lol
This is how all gun videos should be very nice job 💯👍
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

12 (left foot)
And

Yeah that's fair. I hope to post a part 2 where I do some accuracy testing with some different ammo. Thanks for your comment.

Yes, but at a hideous price increase!! So I bought 2 &1/2 rifles for price of 1 Ruger.

Good review. Might be the one I got out bid on gunbroker haha !
Thanks. Was it a few months ago? If so then it probably is the same gun! I picked up another one so I might be listing this one in the near future.
@tom Finally got myself a Patriot in 375 Ruger. Now i get to have fun hopefully.
@@Mr480junkie Nice! Hopefully you found some ammo or got some loads worked up. Let me know how she shoots!
@@tomlopez1282 I did find some on gunbroker and got a decent deal too. Now to get time to shoot.
This would be nice with a muzzle brake for backpacking great 400 yard and under round
Good review 👍🏻
Thank you. I hope to post some load development and accuracy testing in the near future
Isn't that isn't that called there Safari" instead of being part of the Patriot series? Maybe it is a patriot .
I don't think so. I still have the original box from Mossberg and it says "Patriot" as the model.

@@lopeztho Thanks a lot for the input. I appreciate it. I may buy one myself just to have. Seems like an awesome cartridge.

This gun would kill a Bigfoot.
Hahaha why do you think I bought it?!
Big Foot can never die..
