A 300 grain solid in .375 is the weight the cartridge was built around, and this one is turned from brass on a lathe rather than swaged from lead and jacket. The .375 caliber is the classic all-round dangerous game bore, and the .375 H&H is where most people will load this.
How the Safari Solid is built
Cutting Edge machines the Safari Solid from brass on a lathe, so it is one piece of metal with no jacket to separate and no core to deform. The shank carries a 3 plus 1 band configuration, which reduces the bearing surface in the bore and eases barrel strain compared with a full diameter shank of the same length. The nose is Cutting Edge’s 67 percent meplat BBW number 13 profile, the shape their testing found gave the deepest penetration of anything they tried. A flat, wide meplat like that also tends to track straighter through heavy tissue than a round nose does.
Load it as the second barrel or the follow-up magazine round behind an expanding bullet, or run it straight through for the biggest game where you want a bullet that will not open up at all.
