375 cal 350 grain Login/Join

I have an odd lot of ammo coming with supposedly 6 rounds of 350 grain 375 caliber Nosler Round nose Partition bullets included. Nosler doesn't currently list these and am wondering if they ever made them?

I have no desire to use these, it is just a question. I am plenty happy with 260 and 300 grain Partitions.

It might be possible, but the only 350s I know of are the original Barnes SP and solids. I have some.
They are OK for thin skinned DG, but nothing really tough.

Woodleigh made a 350 RN, I shot a number of Buffalo with them, an awesome killer. None better, made a 375 kill like my 404, BTW they made a 450 gr for the 416s and 40 caliber and 550 gr for the 458..I field tested these wonderful bullets on buffalo for Geoff. Hopefully he will bring them back at some point.

Well when they get here I will pull them down and weigh them. If 350 grain I'll let you know.

Woodleigh makes some lovely 350g .375 diameter bullets as well

The Woodleigh 350gr bullet was loaded in the Norma African PH ammunition for the 375 H&H at a MV of 2300fps.

It seems those who have used this 350gr bullet have found it raises the 375 H&H to another level.

PS Woodleigh also made a Protected Point (PP) .375 bullet too but this was not loaded in the Norma PH ammuntion.

Barnes also made 350 gn bullets in 375 cal for a while. IIRC, both TSX softs and solids. But been discontinued for a while I think. One of the US Govt agencies forced them stop production as these bullets apparently had potential to be armour piercing !


Hunting.... it's not everything, it's the only thing.

That is why we still can buy green and black tip steel core military rounds.

As far as I know "the armor piercing law" is only if you use it against LEO or to commit a crime, not about having it (FMJ or any other mono solid bullet). At least this is what we were told at CC class.

There are barnes 350 TSX on gunbroker.
