Re: .375H&H and Woodleigh bullets?

Does anybody has experience with 300grs Woodleigh RN bullets out of the .375 h&h ? On which game???

Thanks Klaus

Yes I do. .375 H&H Magnum with 300 gr Woodleigh RNSPs.

Shot a cape buffalo with it, plus waterbuck, bushbuck x2, zebra x2, warthog, impala x2. Plus some Aussie donkeys, pigs, goats etc.

Performed up to expectations. However I intend to use the Protected Point in the future, merely for their longer range ballistic performance. I could only get the RNs at the time I bought them. I do like the RNs on game however.

I haven't had any failures either.

I suspect failures could be caused by too high velocities, which are usually higher than a H&H generates if normally loaded.

I have not used Swift A-frames at all but as an all round bullet these have also had some criticism, for being too tough for medium and thinner skinned game.

Either would suit me fine I think.

I am not a tout for Woodleigh in any way BTW. They wouldn't even agree to let me buy (at retail price) a series of bullets for photos without selling whole boxes (too much effort for them ) on this forum let alone any sort of advertising.
