Load data in caliber .375 Chey Tac with .375 | 300gr | CutEdge Maximus bullet and 58 powders. The key underlying parameters are shown in the table above. The recommended powders for this cartridge and bullet combination are Vihtavuori N570, Hodgdon Retumbo and ReloadSwiss RS 76.

Important Notice: DO NOT go below Minimum Charge or above Maximum Charge. Since we have no control over the equipment and components used, any responsibility and liability for the results achieved is rejected.

Only powders/loads that match the current filter criteria are displayed: max pressure of a load ≤ 90% of max. standardized pressure, fill rate ≥ 80% and propellant combustion ≥ 95%. Use the sliders above the tables to adjust these thresholds.

Charge: Powder weight in grains. Start with the minimum load and work up carefully.

FR (Fill Rate): Case fill as a percentage. Values above 100% mean compressed loads.

MaxP / %: Maximum chamber pressure in bar and as a percentage of the standardized maximum for this caliber.

V(0): Muzzle velocity in feet per second (fps) at the standardized barrel length.

z (Powder Burn): Estimated propellant combustion percentage at bullet exit.

This overview compares 65 powders for .375 Chey Tac loaded with the .375 | 300gr | CutEdge Maximus. Hodgdon Retumbo delivers the highest muzzle velocity at 3,045 fps; across all powders the maximum-charge window runs from 1,827 fps to 3,045 fps. Accurate 8700 gives the best case fill at 100 %, and 65 of the 65 powders fall inside the usable 80–100 % fill window.

Relative to the caliber's maximum pressure (440 MPa), the top charges use 59–90 %, leaving at least 10 % headroom. The 300.0 gr projectile in 0.375" calls for a 1:15.0 twist; slower twists will usually not stabilise this weight. Accurate 8700, ADI AR 2218, ADI AR 2225 reach 100 % fill or more at maximum charge, so these are compressed loads: they need a long drop tube to seat cleanly and react sensitively to the case capacity of your own brass lot. Vihtavuori N570, Hodgdon Retumbo, ReloadSwiss RS 76 rank at the top here: for .375 Chey Tac with the .375 | 300gr | CutEdge Maximus they combine a high case fill with complete burn and sit in the upper velocity band. As outliers, Hodgdon 50BMG, Hodgdon US 869, Vihtavuori 20N29 burn incompletely and react more sensitively to barrel length and temperature. Always begin at the start load and work up in small increments while checking case and primer for pressure signs.
