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 Words aren't Murder - Political assassination is MURDER Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?
