Hornady 8232 Dangerous Game 375 Ruger 300gr DGS Ammunition 20rd

The Hornady 8232 Dangerous Game ammunition delivers proven stopping power for Africa's most dangerous game animals. This 375 Ruger cartridge features a 300-grain Dangerous Game Solid (DGS) bullet engineered for maximum penetration through thick hide and heavy bone. Professional hunters and serious sportsmen rely on this load when failure is not an option.

What Makes This Different

The DGS bullet construction uses a copper-clad steel jacket with a flat nose design that maintains straight-line penetration without deflection. Unlike conventional soft-point bullets that expand and lose momentum, the solid construction drives through the toughest game with consistent performance. The 375 Ruger case provides 200-300 fps higher velocity than the 375 H&H Magnum while maintaining the same overall cartridge length for standard-length actions.

Key Features

• 300-grain Dangerous Game Solid bullet for maximum penetration
• Copper-clad steel jacket construction resists deformation
• Flat nose design prevents deflection on angled shots
• 375 Ruger case delivers superior ballistic performance
• Consistent powder charges ensure shot-to-shot reliability
• Premium brass cases suitable for reloading
• 20 rounds per box, 6 boxes per case configuration

Field testing demonstrates consistent penetration depths exceeding 40 inches in ballistic gelatin. The flat nose bullet profile creates a larger wound channel than round-nose designs while maintaining trajectory stability at extended ranges. This ammunition performs reliably in extreme temperatures from African heat to northern cold, maintaining consistent velocities and accuracy standards demanded by professional guides.
