@Shootist43 The 300 Weatherby I currently have is actually a wildcat. I've had two of these. Made by a friend of mine. The first gun he called a 30 Super but I ran into some questions with customs somewhere because the ammo box dais 300 Weatherby and they didn't like the idea of me bringing in ammo without a gun for it, which of course I actually had. I finally convinced them but the next one I had him build for me (the one in the picture) he put 300 Weatherby Improved on the barrel and I've never been questioned.
He is currently building me a 300 Weatherby that will not be a wildcat. I don't hand load, he has always loaded my ammo. He will provide hand loads for the new one but I'll be able to shoot factory loads as well. In m current rifle I can shoot factory ammo but it is 1 moa when I do that because I assume its related to the brass fire forming to the chamber the same time it's sending the bullet down range.
First pic is of a wildcat round (150gr) next a factory round (180gr). Second is the current wildcat rifle.
The animals I've taken with this round are: Coyotes, Pigs, Whitetail Deer, Axis Deer, Fallow Deer, Aoudads, Mouflon Sheep, Bobcats, Elk, Pronghorn, Black Bear, Roe Deer, Muntjac, Red Deer, Common Blesbok, White Blesbok, Cape Bushbuck, Kalahari Gemsbok, Brindled Gnu, Red Hartebeest, Southern Greater Kudu, Mountain Reedbuck, Vaal Rhebok, Common Springbok, Black Springbok, White Springbok, Kalahari Springbok, Steenbok (shot him in the butt so as not to destroy the mount), Cheetah
