I'm new to forums and reloading so excuse any ignorance I show. I inherited a Rem 721 300 H&H along with dies. I've messed around with reloading for a number of years but thought I would see how well I could tune a load for this rifle. Found I could get a nice .75" group at 100 and a 2.0" at 200 yards. I had purchased a 100 pieces of brass from eBay and only gave them a quick look. On the range the other day one shell wouldn't feed. Turns out about a third of the brass is resized 300 Rem Mag. Is there a problem with using this brass? It seems to shoot fine. Reading various threads there is talk of using other brass and resizing or FL? the brass. | ||

I speak under correction here (no reference books at the office), but isn't 300H&H a whole lot longer than the Win mag? The H&H is essentially a necked-down .375H&H (72mm or 2.83" case length). It could be worth your while to check that. | |||

You can re-form 300 Weatherby brass to 300H&H, but the "short mag" (300Win Mag, 7mmRem Mag etc) brass will be way to short as these were designed to work in 30-06 length actions. | |||

don't know what a 300 rem mag is.. if it is a 300 RUM, with no belt, there's not way it will go into dies/gun/etc if it is a 300 winmag, it won't close the bolt in a 300HH, as it has far less bodt taper. You can't resize to 300HH as it is .35 too short jefe opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?
