Re: The ol' 300 H&H

Thought I'd bump this old post back up for an FYI for the 300 H&H fans.

The May 2005 issue of Rifle magazine, here in the States, features an article by Brian Pearce on Holland's "Super 30." He took a pre-64 Model 70 in 300 H&H to Zimbabwe and describes the various game taken with it.

He also discusses the loads he used on this game, one of which was a 200gn AccuBond (a spitzer) over 66.0 grns of IMR-4350 (Fed brass/Fed 215 Lg Rifle Mag primer). Velocity was 2904fps, and at 100yds it put 3 shots into well under an inch.

These days you don't see very many pieces in the gun rags highlighting this venerable old cartridge, so this one was a pleasant suprise.
