A prozine doesn't exist outside of the Hugo Awards but yes, they are considered prozines by the award. I'm not sure about SF Review actually since it is a website. By "prozine or any other publication" I assumed you just meant any publication because I'm not sure what is special in terms of reviews about the prozines. (sic) I would suggest you make use of the resource in front of you: a list full of SF fans. I'm sure they can recommend some hard SF for you. Have you read Egan? Which hard SF authors do you like?

Hard SF is a mis-nomer; perhaps I should say cutting edge, high tech, near future, speculative fiction? There is no new SF in my library by Greg Egan, and some of his older novels have been stolen. This is even a bigger problem with Fantasy novels, but that is not my concern. Here is an incomplete reading list I compiled of some of my favorite novels (not all SF). I also enjoy post apocalyptic, and alt history novels.
