Description
Remember, the true elite use a 22 LR while hunting rhinoceros — there is a secret pressure point known only to safari guides and Teddy Roosevelt’s direct descendants which, when hit with a 40 grain projectile, causes the immense thing to keel over dead as disco. Fortunately for the rest of us there is this stellar 375 Ruger cartridge from Hornady’s Dangerous Game Series ammunition line.
rThis cartridge sports a 300 grain DGS (Dangerous Game Solid) projectile. The non-expanding bullet wears a thick copper clad steel jacket so that it can penetrate a rhino’s or elephant’s unyielding hide and heavy bones alike that it may incapacitate some vital organ within. With the better part of 5,000 ft/lbs energy to exert, this cartridge’s sheer power is enough to make short work of any of Africa’s Big Five — America’s grizzly bear ought to fare no better.
rHornady has given attention to this round’s creation that rivals that of a handload. Its brass casing and primer deliver the reliability you ought to demand while you’re sharing space with dangerous creatures, and its Superformance propellant technology delivers the fast and consistent muzzle velocity which lends itself so well to safari hunting.
