The Queen of the medium’s is very easy to learn to shoot well. Much of dealing with recoil is mental. Pre - 64s in 375 H&H can be very good, but much like Parker’s, a bunch of them have been messed with so you want to Vet them like you would any other. I would suggest you seek a later higher stocked Monte Carlo style if you plan to use with a scope. The early versions had too much drop for comfortable scope use. In a true big game/ dangerous game rifle form follows function- meaning in this case flawless feeding from the magazine. While many Pre-64 model 70 do meet this need. Don’t assume they all do, with all ammunition.
If you’d like a 375 on a Model 70 to try and see if you enjoy it let me know. It can be arranged. The big mistake made with these calibers that have some recoil, is to sit down on a bench with a scoped rifle and start trying to deal with it. A much better start is to shoot off sticks or a standing bench using open sights. We aren’t trying to shoot groups but just hit a target and function the bolt. Starting off correctly makes all the difference in the world.
