What about the 300 H&H ???

[Tobe]

I have a Remington 721 and a Remington 700 custom shop , both in 300 H & H. Still working on loads with the 700. The 721 likes 180 grain Accubonds. What powder do you like for the 200 & 220 grain bullets?

Have used RL22 on 220gr Hornady RNSN and 240gr Woodleigh PP. Worked great every time.

Thinking on taking mine to Mozambique next year, hunting Leopard and planes game with it. I’m thinking of 200gr A Frames for planes game, what would you recommend for Leopard?

Thank You

I’d recommend 200 grain Nosler Partitions for both PG and Leopard. That’s what I used in April for several PG animals…Springbok to Zebra. Also, the Leopard in my avatar.

175 gr Barnes LRX

My pre 64 model 70 loves the 175 LRX at 2925fps.

Thinking of deer hunting with it this season so I checked zero at 200 the other day. Unbelievably accurate rifle.

Would love to have one. Have an unfinished project on a sporterised P14 action with a 30cal target barrel I picked up. Sadly reamers are basically non existent in NZ and with the dollar the way it is and freight, their isn't enough shekels in the toy fund to import one from the states. No rentals either

Same setup as Atticus. I dropped an axis in Texas a few weeks ago at 280yds and it never moved. I have leupold vx-6 with Talley rings. I live in coastal ga and don’t typically take long shots but that rifle can clang 10in steel at 450 yds all day. The cds system is basically cheating once it’s dialed in.

If you had used the same opening paragraph to make a statement instead of ask a question, 90% of AH would have heartily agreed with you. Perfect choices, especially in combination with each other! The 300 H&H feeds as smoothly if not better than the 375 H&H, they have the same bolt throw, both proven for over 100 years. You couldn't find a better training rifle for later 375 use. The 300 is under-utilized, underloaded with the potential for even higher performance, and yes, "screams safari." If any caliber deserved to be reawakened, it is the 300 H&H, IMO.
You don't need us to convince you. You were on the right track from the first sentence.
