.375 H&H good Cape buffalo cartridge?

[Aleksandar]

I'm about to order my CZ 550 in .375 H&H, wondering if this bullet can take a buffalo out when placed correctly.

My one experience with .375 and barnes tsx 300 grain. See pics one shot kill he went about 5 yds.

Absolutely. The .375 H&H loaded with a 300 gr Swift A-Frame, Barnes TSX or Woodleigh Solid is a fine choice.
I know you are not in the USA, but here are a few links to the ammo I am referring to. All would serve you well.

Yep it will do the job for you!

Use a good quality soft point on buffalo, only time we use solids is when following a wounded buffalo.

375 h&h is perfect, go with the Barnes TSX in 300gr. and penetration will be of least concern, even on quartering toward shots....

Be weary of sharply quartering away from the left. I have also found the swift A frames to work well.

Have to agree with TMS on the solids.

Happy hunting

My best always
