The .375 H&H Magnum, also known as .375 Holland & Holland Magnum (9.5×72mmB), is a medium-bore rifle cartridge. The cartridge was introduced in 1912 by London based gunmaker Holland & Holland.
The .375 H&H Magnum is the result of competition between British rifle manufacturers to develop new cartridges to take advantage of the new smokeless powders.
The .375 H&H often is cited as one of the most useful all-round rifle cartridges, especially in shooting big and dangerous games.
With bullet weights ranging from 270 grains (17 g) to 350 grains (23 g), it has the necessary punch for small to medium game, as well as massive, thick-skinned dangerous game.
The most common bullet weight available in this caliber is 300 grains (19 g). In many regions with thick-skinned dangerous game animals, the .375 H&H is seen as the minimum acceptable caliber. In many places (primarily in Africa), it is now the legal minimum for hunting such games.
