Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the CX bullet better than a traditional cup-and-core design for big game?
The CX (Copper Alloy eXpanding) bullet is a monolithic projectile, meaning there is no separate lead core that can separate from the jacket under the extreme pressures of big-game impact. This construction ensures 95%+ weight retention, uniform controlled expansion across a wide range of impact velocities, and dramatically deeper penetration than conventional cup-and-core bullets — critical advantages when hunting thick-skinned or dangerous game where a pass-through wound channel can be a life-or-death matter.
Is this ammunition truly waterproof, and why does that matter in the field?
Yes. Hornady seals both the primer pocket and the case mouth on every Outfitter round, making the cartridge watertight. The nickel-plated brass case also resists corrosion from moisture, humidity, and sweat far better than standard brass. For hunters crossing rivers, hunting in rain, or carrying ammunition for days in a pack, this protection ensures that every round will fire reliably when it matters most.
What rifles is this .375 H&H Magnum ammunition compatible with?
This ammunition is chambered for any rifle chambered in .375 H&H Magnum, one of the most widely available dangerous-game cartridges worldwide. Common platforms include bolt-action rifles from Ruger, Winchester, CZ, Browning, and many custom African safari rifles. Always verify your specific firearm's chamber specifications and consult your owner's manual before use. The .375 H&H is not interchangeable with other .375 cartridges such as the .375 Ruger or .375 Weatherby Magnum.
