All,

I know this is not a double rifle question and this may be bad form, but the guys on this post are very responsive.

So, below I am reposting something I put on the rifles page:

All,

My father recently purchased a rifle that was supposed to be a 300 weatherby. Upon further inspection, we have found it to be a 300 hoffman. Does anyone have any experience with the cartridge?

We took a chamber cast and it appears very similar to the weatherby. Can you shoot weatherby ammo in it?

If not, we will probably rechamber it to 30-378, as it is the only larger case in .30 caliber.

Thanks.
