My Grandfather Bought a .375 Rifle off someone at a gun show a long time ago, It came with a mounted scope and One round Missing out of a Box of 20.
He sold it a week later, with Two Rounds Missing out of a Box of 20.
Second Path this guy shoots 45-70s all day long with passion and enthusiasm and he didnt want to shoot that thing at all.
lol....yup.... my lightweight 30-06 is all the recoil I want..... 375 is a great round though for the big game
Bill Barry Haha yeah. I have a .375 and a 45-70. Compared to a .375. a 45-70 is like shooting a popgun
well said
45-70 does a number on a deer though, I have one of the navy arms 45-70 bolt guns they were selling in the 70's using the Siamese mauser action, it is strong enough that you can load almost to 458 magnum specs.
Years ago, when I was an FFL, I ordered a bolt-action .375 for a friend who was rapturous about the idea. When it came in, it had the most beautiful piece of Circassian Walnut he or I have ever, ever, seen. Stunning. We took it to a quarry and tested it with a custom Magna-ported, Mannlicher-stocked .458 I had, a Ruger M77 in .220 Swift, and a Ruger No. 1 in .25-06. We shot gallon jugs of water, and the most plastic damage was from the .220, (the plastic looked like it had been attacked by a lion) but the .375 was a heavy hitter. Amazingly, the .458 was a pussycat in comparison - the long stock, big vented recoil pad, and Magna-ported barrel made it milder to shoot than all but the Swift. He was ecstatic, and treasured that .375 so much he gifted me a - are you ready? Colt Python. Yup. As thanks for the rifle. Now that's what you call an enthusiast! I still have it. True story.
I always wanted a No.1... As a father, the best part of the video was the story about John when he was young. That's the stuff that sticks with you forever as a dad...
Yep, and I'll never let John forget what a goofy little kid he was! :-)
It's so cool that you guys bond through these videos. I wish I had a relationship with my dad like that
Yeah my old man unfortunately passed away i still miss him often
@@justsmallstuff4994 dad passed when I was 15, he was a bit of a mixed bag
If you get one they will start multiplying in the cabinet when you are not looking
How anyone could watch this guy and it not make them happy is beyond me. Anyone who's anti gun I send to hickok. This man expresses all the best parts of gun culture. Informative, fun, respectful, and is relatable to most of us country people. We just want to have fun, earn a living, and be left alone.
Not anti-gun-I’m a lefty, and I’ve always owned weapons-but pro-regulation. Like with any dangerous product. There’s no interference with the 2nd Amendment, which specifies “...well regulated...”. In fact, you’d have a much more sympathetic audience if you acknowledged what, to me and many of us, are reasonable and evidence-based regulations.
Instead many people see a complete refusal to even discuss the need for regulation. So we’re stuck, but we don’t have to be.
@@raystanczak4277
Agreed. I'm pretty much the same.
Years( well, decades) ago, I knew an older gentleman who hunted deer with a .375 H&H mag. I always knew when he fired. I'd hear the shot, oh about a mile away, and it sounded like a field artillery round going down range.
.375 H&H is also an excellent prairie dog and squirrel round.
Dave o yeah much more better than a 22
+Luke little 1432 it sure is. Kills 'em rodents deader than the 22s.
WHERED HE GO?!
I have no meat to bring home because I "mist" the animal ;)
This is my favorite triceratops rifle.
Longest I've seen hickok talk on a normal video without shooting. I think he was trying to delay the inevitable :)
Lou McGopher gun: I am inevitable
I had a Ruger #1 .375 H&H, it was not pleasant to shoot - at all. I ended up selling it to a collector for what I paid for it.
The irony is pretty ridiculous
Probably. A .375 in such a light platform has got to be extremely painful. The ammo is really expensive, too.
he's a excellent teacher/ instructor
A friend of mine hunts deer with a .375 H&H Magnum.
All he has to do is TELL the deer he's carrying .375 H&H Magnum, and the deer just drop dead :)
GameraTheBrave -Lol. Yeah. Or a 45-70. Just announce what u have, and look for one of the many that have fainted from fright
Troy Ortega my uncle hunts with a 45 70 as do many other dear friends and even have a friend that used to use a barrett m99 for deer in upstate ny although it may be a bit over kill you never have to worry about losing game
I bought a Mossberg Patriot in 375 Ruger and I have yet to get a deer with it, ( all I saw last season were small fawns of the year) but it, with the 270 gr Hornaday sp loads, (2,850 fps) at 100 yds, printed 3 shot, .55" groups
The #1 in .375 is a lovely rifle to shoot. Big push is what I feel when shooting it. Good ammo.
I always get a kick outta hearing you chuckle. No matter how many guns you've shot or how much stuff you've blown up you still enjoy it like a big ol kid
"I promise I have not shot a road sign.
...with a .375."
We use to throw glass soda bottle at road signs at 55 mph way back when. Made a helluva racket when ya hit one!
Adam Sweeney if u did I would be proud to drive by it
Adam Sweeney. Same.
lol we still do that going faster and with beer bottles
@@jusnuts1443 we used to try to hit deer in a ditch with glass soda bottles lol.
The stock hard red (thin) rubber butt pad on the #1 was actually painful after a few shots, but with the Limbsaver fitted pad it's easy to shoot all you want with the .375 H&H and 300's. Mine wears a 1.5x4 scope which works well with that round. On 1.5x you can shoot with both eyes open like it's a red-dot and the brain accomodates the difference without complaint, then cranked up to 4x you can get some range on it and take advantage of the good ballistic performance. This is the big difference in 'stopper' cartridges....the .375 H&H has a trajectory similar to the 30-06 w/180 bullets so you can reach out and touch things much better than the rainbow-like 458 Win or the like. Great rifle the #1 and great round in the 375 H&H.
Yeah my now 338 magnum was pretty miserable til I put a decelerator pad on it still kicked like a mule but a much more gentle mule
I inherited a No.1 in 7x57mm Mauser from my father. Ha always talked about getting another in .375 H&H but never got around to it.
It is gorgeous and a real pleasure to shoot. I'm not much of a hunter and I don't shoot it very often but I definitely plan to pass it on to my children. It really is a treasure.
I found a can't pass it up deal 2 years ago. A gunshop in western Pennsylvania had 5 cerakoted stainless steel Mossberg Patriots in 375 Ruger, pretty close in ballistics, but fits a standard length action. $290 brand new. After sighting it in, some with the lead sled, I got a 3 shot group at 100 yds that measured .55" 270 gr Hornaday sp at 2,850fps. I quickly got it to my gunsmith and put a muzzle break on it. At only about 7 lbs, it was just short of brutal in recoil. Now it's like a 30'06 with 180 gr loads.
.375 H&H is a real good all round caliber. The meat loss is really small with the right load for what you are hunting.
I hunt Wild Boar, Deer and Moose with my BRNO 602 .375 H&H.
The 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser and this caliber we are two of my favourites besides .222 Remington.
Excellent video, keep up the good work!
if ur hunting deer with 375 thats just stupid over kill moose is the only one its reasonable for
Ok, different experiences, different ideas.. I still consider it an all round caliber. But I wouldn't use it on Capercaillie, that's 6,5x55
@@spexts9006
@@spexts9006. No actually believe it or not the meat loss is less than a 30-06. I can speak from multiple experiances personally. I thought that it would do more than it did at first too.
@@spexts9006get a clue.
@@spexts9006 hunting a deer with a 375 is not overkill at all, my dad use to shoot springboks all the time with his 375 when he was younger, the difference is just that you use solid points instead of the soft points
He takes the first shot at 9:15. He loads the bullet at 8:35 if you want to see that too.
I know I was just dying to see him shoot it.

The .375 H&H: To hell with that buffalo.
The .600 NE: To hell with that buffalo and the elephant it’s hiding behind.
700 NE to hell with that herd of at-at's.
I hate shooting my 577 NE however i decided to shoot a racoon with it because it was the first thing i grabbed out if my safe, still dont know where it went.
Man that’s what they say about .50 bmg

This brings back great memories of two of my great friends and I shooting my Ruger No. 1 in .458 Winchester Magnum back in the day. All I can say is wow! The most amazing recoil I've ever experienced. I've shot the .375 H&H and it recoils hard too, but the .458 Winchester Magnum has definitely got it beat. I honestly thought my liver would fall out. We shot two boxes thru it. One box of 300 grain solids & one box of 500 grain solids. Devastating damage to whatever we shot. I was so sore, I could barely raise my arm at the shoulder for several days. It also made driving my stick shift pickup truck somewhat difficult. Shooting that gun was a great learning experience that I will never forget. An awesome teaching experience for the three of us, but one I won't soon repeat.
I have a double gun Holland & Holland in .375 H&H. It’s got beautiful gold in lays and filigreed in silver and platinum.
Was my great grandpas/ he bought it in England back in 1932.
Chloe Hennessey Can you post pictures of it?
It’s probably worth 10K +
trying to get rid of it? lol
Wish I had that rifle of yours!!!
NHH It’s been appraised at $154,800. So I had to have it insured at $170,000
A Number One in 7mm Rem. Mag. has been my primary hunting rifle since 1976. I love it, and have taken a wide variety of game with it. I also have a No. One in 7x57, with a Mannlicher stock. A truly beautiful rifle.
I LOVE the fact that these are simply named *"Ruger No. 1"*
Good day sir
I find it quite interesting that you are saying it has so much recoil.I am 15 years old south african and i grew up shooting my mauser 375 h&h and a sako 300 win mag.I think that I am just getting used to it.That 375 is an amazing caliber for anything.I have personally shot everything from kudu to duiker with it.
Thank you for the great video
Well, it's probably a matter of habit.
@@nazarderkach9320 I think that's exactly what it is. I used to think my .30-06 was a beast, but now I find it quite easy on my shoulder, although it took a few years to get to that point. If I had a good reason, other than pure gunlust, I would buy a .375 H&H and have fun with it.
You made my day when you mentioned "effective Barrel length". Very important consideration and distinction.
I love how hickok still gets so much enjoyment out of shooting after all those years.
Im a trained field guide in South Africa and 375H&H is considered to the minim for a guide rifle. I know a few guides that refuse to carry anything less than 416 Rigby.
Yess! Finally a real high powered rifle and also one of my all time favourites! Ruger No.1 ! Thank You, Sir!

hickok is being humble and says that he doesn't have that great of aim and then takes down a cinderblock pretty darned far down the range no problem, gotta respect this guy. The video was a treat!
I love when you walk down and all i can hear in the background is the hundreds of shells clanking against the gravel
Shout out to John (Jon?) for being a great camera man. Catches everything and gets different angles and close ups.
also a wonderful stand up comedian!
Beautiful gun. 375 is one of the amazing calibers. It's like the 30-06 of African calibers. It can be loaded down with lighter bullets for plains game hunting but then loaded up with bullets like that swift A frame (great bullet) for just about anything else. I do give you big props for shooting that many rounds. My shoulder is sore from watching.
Had a chance for #1 in 375 HH & went with replica 1873 Sharps instead & that worked fine, since Africa not on bucket/ budget list . Oh , I did rescued an elder homeless Chihuahuas, days. ago . Put a smile in an old man's face . Life is good & TY for the entertaining times.
Get one in a 404 Jeffrey. Big bullet but moderate recoil. Craig Boddington would approve. A truly classic caliber in a Ruger single shot.
"Tremors" is all I think about when I hear 375 H&H Magnum
+MadMax23 Knockdown power of the ying-yang :)
If you need it, and don't have it, you sing a different tune

My dad taught me to shoot with a Ruger No 3 he had re chambered from 22 Hornet to 223 Remington. He loaded anti Jackrabbit ammo. He put a Leupold 2x7 on it and I learned to not pull the trigger until I had the game in the sights.....Best gun ever
One thing I admire about the man , he takes the vicious rifle kick as though nothing happened. And at the same time the weapon is beautifully explained.
Hickok 45, does me good to see a man able to spend his life doing what he loves. Best to you and your son as you folks continue doing what you love together.
Many years ago I helped a friend in Texas work up a hand load for this same rifle. My shoulder gave a half throb as soon as the video started.
I always liked the 300 H & H myself. Very smooth shooting compared to other 30 cal magnums.
I was given an old Remington 721 in .300 H&H and it was the most accurate .30 cal rifle I ever had
I love absolutely love my Ruger #1 in 300 H&H!!❤
Beautiful rifle. I have the “tropical” version chambered for the .416 Rigby. My .375 H&H is a Winchester Model 70. A great shooter and a classic cartridge.

In Canada thats now an assaulty rifle...
In Canada, you can't legally carry pepper spray for self defense, and double-barrel shotguns are in the process of being banned if the Liberal Party get their authoritarian way. Life ain't so good up here...
Sucks to live in Canada…💁🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️

@@portugal5698 ... no. The boomers elected the first trudeau. ... many times... allowing for this castro bastard to get in power.
Other 375 h&h are not banned though.
My dad had 30 06 version of Ruger One. Good 👍 rifle. One shot, one kill was his philosophy. Thanks for sharing.
have had a Ruger No1 in 300 Win Mag for a lot of years. I keep my ammo on my left wrist, and I can shoot that thing pretty darn fast. Dropped a moose with it years ago and have loved it ever since. !!! Just a classic rifle. I did two things with mine. First I added a wolf main spring for faster hammer speed, and the second...probably the most important thing was adding a Kickeez recoil pad to it. What a difference !!!!! Also, not an add-on, but took the ejector spring and lessened it so I can save my brass ( reloading ) What a great rifle !!!!My neighbor has one he re-barreled from a 25/06 to a 30/06, then finally to a .243 with a truck axle schillen barrel. Beautiful wood furniture, flat black barrel, tricked out trigger, wolf mainspring, flat black rings and a 6-24x50 scope and he shoots it at 1,200 pretty darned well. Cool Guns !!!!
Nice, I can remember when the #1's first came out, they had such stellar wood on them, I worked in a gun shop in those days and it seemed that each one we opened had wood more beautiful than the last. BTW, I did get to fire one in .458, brutal recoil as you might imagine.
Kevin in CT
Had this in a 7 mm mag it had beautiful wood but the recoil from a falling block is genuine punishment for the shoulder.
Now I think somebody needs to make a stop at their friendly local sheet-metal fab shop, and ask 'em if you can raid their scrap bin. After that grade-school field trip story, I suddenly have a need to see 50 pieces of stop-sign gauge steel stacked up all in row, for a proper documented penetration test with this .375, before you burn up the last of those two ammo boxes.
Stop sign material is hardened just a bit and a little tougher than everyday sheet steel like A-36!
Mr. Hickok, you will probably never see this post, but just in case... I served as a firearms instructor for my agency for a total of 15 years. During that time I was constantly looking for a “better way” to do shoot so as to provide our trainees with the very best training possible. I discovered in my quest that when shooting a Remington 870 with rifled slugs that if the shooter pulled the butt stock hard into the shoulder and at the same time pulled hard forward on the for-end with the other hand that the apparent recoil and recoil arc were reduced significantly. This is particularly noticeable when shooting in the under arm assault position. I believe that by pulling forward with the support hand that one is absorbing part of the recoil with that hand thereby reducing the recoil felt by the shooter’s shoulder, or in the case of the underarm assault, the shooter’s support hand....
Had a Mauser bolt in .375, a beautiful rifle. Accurate and fun to shoot. Recoil was not bad. The drawback was a little heavy and price of ammo makes handloading a must. A can of powder disappears real fast ! . It is a very accurate round,almost as good as the .300 H&H. The 300 h&h in a win m70 is the finest rifle I have ever owned.
An old old man that used to live down the road from me growing up used to have one. You knew when he shot it.
Still waiting on a Webley video!
Really like the look of this Ruger, and I hope your shoulder can recover.
Really enjoy your channel, guys!
Discovered it few weeks back and have had a blast watching my way through them all!
I've been a gun guy all my life, but I was born in the wrong country to be able to shoot some 'fun' guns.
I owned two 22 cal. riffles at one point and enjoyed shooting at the local outdoor range but I sold them when I moved abroad.
I feel like I'm able to live my joy of target shooting through you, but it's not just the guns - it's your way of "teaching us" that I enjoy too. - It didn't surprise me when I found out that you are/were a teacher --- a very entertaining and informative one to top!
Keep up the good work, Hickok & John - I look forward to hear the gong chime again!
The Icelander in the UK.
I shot a .375 Ruger in Africa and I loved it. It shot very well and when shooting at game I never felt the recoil. Excellent
My father owns one in .270 with the stock going all the way to the end of the barrel. They are one of the most comfortable rifles to hold the way the barrel sits farther back than on a bolt yet doesn’t feel like a break action
Something about the No 1, feels like sealing a vault door when you close the action. I'll have one some day, they are just neat.
This is my favorite episode! thank you for your time!
The hickok laugh gets me every time!
Looks like a good time !
I've always wanted to have a Ruger #1 Varminter in 220 Swift. Thanks for this!
Hickok is the man and his reluctance to shoot it is hilarious. My Lord, the 45-70 is a load for me. I can't imagine the power of the 375 H&H.
Nine minutes to fire your first shot. I think that is a record for you.
I was thinking the same thing!
makes sense! giant bullets lol 53 bucks for 20
Bill Givens He was working up to it!
My shoulder hurts just watching you.
I was going to say..” He sure is talking much and delaying the shooting”😂😂😂
While this is an older video, this is one of my favorite guns (same model and caliber!)
Just LOVE that caliber. Hunts all. Scratches every itching.
Yep, not much it won't take care of. I met a guy many years ago in my county who hunts everything with one. He handloads, so he would adjust the load for whatever game he is hunting. Obviously, with a bolt gun, you could work up some loads that would be normal enough to take a deer or anything without it being "overkill." :-)
I've seen this video a couple or a few times, and I never realized how far the lid rolls @15:48 lol it rolls, takes a turn, and keeps on rolling lol
A great video. love the no.1, its a pity people now are so obsessed with more militaristic firearms, and also ruger scaling back production so much of this classic rifle. I believe it was Bill Rugers pet project and when he was in the factory he insisted the best stock blanks were used on the no.1. Thanks
+ro eng There's room for both. Once you have one or two decent defensive handguns and long guns, it's time to start filling the safe with stacks of beautiful wood-furniture shotguns and rifles from the 40s, 50s, and 60s, among other things.
Headframe Hunters you left out shot guns....
yup
You are right about the wood quality. With guns having a 131 serial # prefix you
can see the quality goes down. This rifle has straight grain in the butt stock.
sadly typical of most No. 1 rifles today. The aesthetics and presentation that
were the norm 50 years ago...............long gone today, and the price is tripled.
@@robertmarkert1868 I picked up a Ruger 3 in 45/70, made in 1979. Haven’t even shot it yet and it’s one of my favorites
Love it when he laughs after the first shot!
Man! hickok45 is the man, he makes it look easy, I know young hunters here in South Africa who avoid the 375 like the plague. I think they great! But no joke!
I have several bolt action rifles chambered in .375 H&H. Love them all but my favorite is my 1949 Winchester model 70 Safari grade.
I have a Ruger no.1 chambered in .416 Rigby and love it!!!
I did install the lim saver recoil pad on it.
I found it at a Tanner gunshow years ago. I got the deal of the century.
The tropical grade. Ruger no. 1. 100 rounds of ammo and set of dies for $600.00. only had 3 shots fired out of it.
I've since taken my Ruger to Africa several times as my backup rifle for dangerous game.
Would like to see a walk through at Bud's Gun Shop...and see Bud and his guns/rifles.
Hell just come here, 40 minutes from my house here in central KY.
I love when hickok45 says “hey hickok45 here”❤️
This must be Mr. Hickok's 'the least shots fired' video lol.
Wasn't no, ping ping ping ping in this video.
So I take it you haven't seen any of his muzzle loader videos?
The No 1 Ruger, Bill Rugers favorite design of his entire career and an extremely fitting way to remember Mr. Ruger! I started with he No 1 in college starting with a 220 Swift cal. and have loved the rifles my entire life the last one of bought is in a .257 Weatherby Mag its equally as beautiful as the first one I owned, if you have that special appreciation of fine work and beauty/Art in a fine rifle you do need to own a No1 in your life it gives you a feeling inside that no black plastic rifle will never be able to fulfill and I have nothing against black rifles sometimes in ones life after you have and do own so many black rifles there is an opening for true blued steel, incredibly fine wood to steel finishes and the make one shot count and when you reach THAT point in your life I highly recommend Rugers finest rifle ever produced!
When I was in my 20s I had 2 Ruger number 1s , One was a 458 win mag the other was a 7X57 with Mannlicher Stock. I needed some cash so I sold them, man I sure have missed them!
One of my top 5 Hikock45 vids of all time! Thanks for taking one for the team Hikock.
And with the rings you could sight it in at 100m.

Several years ago I had a Ruger No.1 in .458 Winchester Magnum. That thing was a beast.
Got to love the 375 H&H. I have two rifles on that caliber. A BRNO and a Remington. Never get tired of shooting them.
"That's beyond 38 special" lmao. 😂😂😂😂
That's a strong rifle!
hey hickock45 that rifle would be good for those T-rex wandering around your compound. loved the video, thanks.
Dear hickok45, I regularely watch your videos, and I very often agree with your opinion. This video about the 375H&H was great again. I was lucky enough to be hunting in South Africa, this July/August, where I actually used a Sauer 202 in 375H&H, using a Rhino bullet, 300 grain. I shot anything from Cape-Buffalo, to Wilderbeest, Hartebeest, Kudu, Impala,... using a Svarowvski scope. I shot distances from 50 to 235 meters, which took it pretty much to the max distance. This caliber proofed to be such a great choice, that I do not even think of another caliber for the next trip there. The recoil is not small, but when you focus on dangerous game, you actually don´t feel the recoil at all. Meat damage was surprisingly small. The weight retention was incredible, the deformed bullet showed 299 grain on the scale. I can only recommend this combination on medium or heavy game. Regards from Germany, Klaus
If you don't handload , you can't possibly grasp the value and versatility of that round.
And to chamber it in that beautifully simple rifle was a perfect match.
Sorry officer, i'm recoil drunk
+Alex Mas no joke.. after a bit of shooting at a range i think i do feel a little strange on the drive home
Alex Mas getting some good ol' fashion recoil therapy.
Actually he should get some custom road-signs made and shoot those, then sell them on Ebay/Amazon.
Once you've ordered one type, others of the same kind will be cheaper in the future.

I love the honesty and accuracy of hickok45. My go-to channel before buying a firearm.
That's good shooting with that caliber. Most people don't realize how quickly that thang will make flinch....
Interesting, "never shot a Road Sign with a 375", seems awfully specific ;-)
+James Paulsen yeah, my wife and I wondered the same thing. I guess we all sow our wild oats and have to live with it. Even if he has, at least he didn't lie.
I just had too come back to this Video . Very KOOL
You should get a 4 Bore that is a real big game hunting rifle or smooth gun.
My reloading book always has super hot loads for a Ruger #1 chambered in 45-70. I always wondered what it was, and now I know.
talking just like matt from demo ranch with the 500 S&W mag
