Nice work Mick.
Looking forward to seeing the .300 H&H in the flesh!

I too must confess to some envy here: the vintage Brit .300 is definitely an itch I need to scratch at some point. Picked up a bunch of cartridges at the right price way over a decade ago in anticipation of the day! Winchester Silver-tip factory loads.
....and No Mick, you cant have 'em!

Heres a couple of pics of the 300H&H, thanks for helping with purchase goes to Davin . Who I haven't met in person. Computer world contact His help with inspection , purchase and drop of to dealer importer / exporter made the process easy.
Hope to repay him with a hunt when the flu is over and we can move around again.
Davins pics, pretty much gone as soon as I looked at the pics...........
1950"s Winchester pre -64 M70 Supergrade , original swivels period red field mounts and a leupold VX 2. 2-7 straight cross hair Great condition for a used rifle Marked 300 magnum. initially worried that import and cal stamping were going to cause some trouble....



Ripp, what are you having done to yours? Pretty nice as they are, feel great in the hand. Original recoil pad has gone hard on mine might change it to a red pachmyer, but keep the original Winchester one .

I ran the 185 TTSX in my 338 and shot a few buff with them, they worked but I preferred the 250 partitions or 250 PPSN's they worked great A bit biased towards the partitions as they were the first real controlled expansion pills I used. Late eighties I got clients to bring them in for me. Everyone reckoned I was mad paying $1 a projectile. I rate the partitions. Used to think the 338 WM was a big gun.
Will see how the 225's go.

Marraki, I wish I could still get the silver tips as a reloading option. Kept to there velocity rating they were a good pill. Bought bulk in 150's 308 and ran them for years. Culled donkeys , horses and camels out of MT Newman with them. Ive got a heap of 200 gr 35 cal for the 358win. Ill see how they go on sambar.
Are you sure you want to keep them.
Ill bring it to the next meeting.
cheers Mick
