I used the 250 gr. Barnes TTSX in my .375 Ruger on the last African trip.

First critter I shot with it was a black Wildebeest, at a ranged 250 yards. A double lung hit with this bullet dropped him in his tracks, so fast we had to search a bit in the tall grass to find him. Bullet exited.
Used this same bullet on everything from little Springbok to a Sable, with great results, although the only DRT was the Wildebeest.
I have used the 270 gr. Barnes more frequently, and a couple of years ago took a Nilgai bull at 200+ yards, again with a sudden DRT result. The ranch manager I was hunting with said it was only the second time he had ever seen a Nilgai drop in its tracks.
Barnes bullets get used in everything I shoot at big game, either TSX or TTSX. They just work.


Yeah, also had a hunter shooting that combo. Those 250's are deadly out of the .375H&H. I think it's a great combination between hitting power and a relatively flat trajectory.
I would not hesitate to recommend that combo, should it work in any hunter's rifle from plains game to Cape Buff.
