Special Features

DGS Dangerous Game Solid construction uses a non-expanding, full-diameter solid bullet with a tough copper-clad steel jacket engineered to drive straight and deep through the thickest hides and hardest bone without deforming, deflecting, or breaking apart

A sectional density of .305 ensures this 300 grain solid maintains deep, straight-line penetration on the heaviest and most resilient animals encountered on a dangerous game hunt

Superformance propellant technology drives this 300 grain solid to 2660 fps, delivering improved velocity over traditional dangerous game loads without pushing pressure beyond safe limits in standard bolt-action and double rifles

Powders are carefully matched and selected to regulate in double rifles, ensuring both barrels shoot to the same point of aim, a non-negotiable requirement when a follow-up shot on a charging animal must land immediately

Premium brass cases and primers are held to strict dimensional and consistency standards, keeping velocity spreads tight for reliable, predictable performance in the field

Practical Benefits

The DGS non-expanding solid is the standard choice for follow-up shots on dangerous game, built to drive through a partially quartered animal or reach the brain and spine on a frontal or rear approach where controlled expansion is not the priority

With 4713 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, this load delivers the momentum needed to anchor the largest and most dangerous species including Cape buffalo, hippo, elephant, and rhino even at extreme angles or through heavy bone

The 375 Ruger is one of the most capable and widely available dangerous game cartridges chambered in modern bolt-action rifles, making the Hornady Dangerous Game Series (8232) a practical and accessible choice for hunters who do not run a classic double rifle

Brass cases support reloading, making this a sound long-term investment for serious safari hunters and outfitters who want to recycle quality brass after a hunt

Available in 20-round boxes with a 6-box case option, this load is well suited for outfitters, professional hunters, and safari operations that need a dependable and consistent supply of proven dangerous game ammunition

The Hornady Dangerous Game Series (8232) in 375 Ruger is a proven platform for professional hunters, safari outfitters, and experienced big game hunters who need a reliable non-expanding solid load that delivers maximum straight-line penetration on the world’s most dangerous and hard-to-stop game animals.
