Description
The .375 H&H Magnum has been the go-to cartridge for dangerous game hunters worldwide for over a century, and Federal's PowerShok line makes it accessible without premium pricing. This load stacks a heavy 300-grain jacketed soft point bullet at 2,530 feet per second, generating over 4,260 foot-pounds of energy that commands respect on everything from African cape buffalo to Alaskan brown bears.
PowerShok's Practical Big-Game Design
Federal built PowerShok around traditional lead-core hunting bullets engineered for solid accuracy and deep penetration without the premium features or cost of specialty lines. The 300-grain soft point bullet expands reliably while the partial jacket controls expansion, letting the round tunnel through thick hide and bone with the kind of penetration the .375 was designed for. You're looking at ammunition that gets the job done without fluff.
Why the 300-Grain .375 H&H Matters
The 300-grain weight sits at the classic sweet spot for this caliber. It's heavy enough to deliver the penetration and momentum serious game demands, yet the velocity keeps the trajectory reasonably flat for field distances. Federal loads this bullet with their own proven brass, primers, and powder formulations that have earned trust from hunters in some of the world's toughest hunting environments. Whether you're building loads for medium to large game, this round gives you genuine versatility across a range of hunting applications.
Built for Reloaders Too
These cartridges come with boxer-primed, reloadable brass that makes them practical for shooters who want to handload. Federal's quality brass sets a solid foundation if you decide to customize your loads down the road.

The .375 H&H is widely recognized as the minimum acceptable caliber in many regions for large and dangerous game, including African cape buffalo, elephant, and Alaska's brown and polar bears. It's also more than capable on medium to large North American game like elk and moose. The cartridge's versatility across such a broad range of game is a major reason it remains one of the most respected hunting calibers a century after its introduction.
