300 h&h is a favourite round for me. I shot with a 300 bolt rifle for years (HOLLAND) It exploded and the bolt rifle was in bits. I never fully recovered. ( flinch issues ). Since then I have had built a BOSS rifle 300 (takedown) and in 2012 ordered a new PURDEY double rifle flanged version. The PURDEY is still not finished they are not simple projects to complete (Purdey have been outstanding to do business with). Bespoke London best guns are a lifetime of labour. I don’t buy second hand guns to hunt with any more. To look at yes, to risk my life no. Long live the 300 h&h there is nothing I would not hunt on earth with this calibre.
