The .465 H&H Belt Mag is a large-caliber, centerfire rifle cartridge developed by Holland & Holland in 1908 for use in the iconic double rifles that bear their name. It was designed to provide an effective long range hunting round capable of taking down even the largest game animals.The .465 H&H uses a large belt on the case head for reliable headspacing and extraction which provides excellent accuracy and consistency. It has become popular with hunters looking to use modern factory ammunition due to its higher velocities and flatter trajectories compared to other rounds with similar bullet weights.

C.I.P.
The Commission internationale permanente pour l'épreuve des armes à feu portatives ("Permanent International Commission for the Proof of Small Arms" – commonly abbreviated as C.I.P.) is an international organisation which sets standards for safety testing of firearms. (The word portatives ("portable") in the name refers to the fact the C.I.P. tests small arms almost exclusively; it is ordinarily omitted from the English translation of the name.) As of 2015, its members are the national governments of 14 countries, of which 11 are European Union member states. The C.I.P. safeguards that all firearms and ammunition sold to civilian purchasers in member states are safe for the users.
To achieve this, all such firearms are first proof tested at C.I.P. accredited Proof Houses. The same applies for cartridges; at regular intervals, cartridges are tested against the C.I.P. pressure specifications at the ammunition manufacturing plants and at C.I.P. accredited Proof Houses.
