The Norma African PH .375 Holland & Holland Magnum 350gr Woodleigh Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) Solid is heavy-for-calibre dangerous game rifle ammunition engineered for maximum straight-line bone penetration. Designed specifically for close-to-medium range encounters between 15 and 100 metres, this factory load couples an extra-thick Australian-made steel jacket projectile with a muzzle velocity of 2,300 fps (700 m/s) and 4,112 ft-lbs (5,559 Joules) of muzzle energy. The nickel-plated brass casing ensures smooth cycling, feeding, and extraction in high-temperature environments, resisting corrosion and chamber sticking during critical shooting scenarios.

Key Features

• Extra-Thick Steel Jacket: Built with an Australian Woodleigh FMJ solid projectile featuring a heavy steel envelope designed to resist core-jacket separation, deformation, and deflection when impacting heavy skeletal structures.
• Nickel-Plated Cases: Slick, corrosion-resistant brass casings facilitate smooth feeding and reliable extraction under extreme safari heat conditions up to 50°C.
• High Sectional Density: A 350-grain (22.7 g) round-nose profile with a high 0.356 sectional density and 0.307 G1 ballistic coefficient guarantees deep, non-expanding penetration through dense muscle and thick bone.
• Optimised Propellant: Boxer-primed, non-corrosive powder charges formulated specifically for the African PH series to prevent erratic chamber pressure spikes in hot tropical and arid climates.

Who is the Norma African PH .375 H&H 350gr Woodleigh FMJ for?

• African Big Five elephant and Cape buffalo hunters — Requires deep, unyielding straight-line penetration through heavy skull and shoulder bones on charging or thick-skinned game, which this dangerous game ammunition delivers using a heavy-for-calibre 350-grain solid producing 4,112 ft-lbs of muzzle energy.
• Northern Territory water buffalo and feral scrub bull hunters — Relies on non-deforming projectile integrity to punch through thick hide and dense bone structure at close bush ranges, utilising a 350-grain Woodleigh steel-jacketed solid traveling at a muzzle velocity of 2,300 fps from standard .375 H&H Magnum rifles.

Less suitable for: Hunting medium-to-large thin-skinned game where broad wound channels take precedence over end-to-end bone penetration (switch to soft nose or bonded expanding ammunition), or open-country shooting beyond 150–200 m where flatter trajectories and reduced recoil are required (switch to lighter 270–300 gr spitzer or boat-tail cartridges).
