Hello has anyone got any first hand experience on the Hornady SP-RP interlock bullets in dangerous game? .ie. buffalo.

I havent come across these until today and with very slim pickings with factory ammunition now in Australia I wanted other opinions on these before I buy some.

Rifle would be a 375h&h on

Thanks
 
I think anyone would advise you to use a 300gr bullet when hunting buffalo.
Maybe time to start reloading your own ?
 
I believe I have two boxes of Nosler Partitions 300 grs. Send me a PM if you are interested. Also another forum member here had 300 TSX for sale.

Or you could throw rocks at it ... (not a Hornady bullet fan)

I have a 375 RSM Ruger Alaskan. I too have a rough time trusting Hornady bullets, and their factory loads.
I've had too many failure-to-fire in the factory loaded stuff.
I have some of the 270 Pt-Sp. I haven't used them on any game yet....
Probably would work on thin skin stuff...
 
I've used them on elk, muskox and moose, where they are efficient and reliable, but that's their wheelhouse. I would not use them on thick-skinned animals from the jacket separation I saw.

Hi Jon,
I saw your post for the .500 NE cases. Are these all brass or are they nickel plated? Hard for me to tell... sorry.
Thanks,
