I would really like to have a 300 H & H. Preferably a bolt gun, but a single shot might work as well. Any leads on current production guns in this round? What would be an alternate solution for a rechambering or rebarreling of something else out there? Looking at the end product having barrel band, express sights, three stage safety, wood stock. I have never built up or changed a current rifle to a new configuration so all help/suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks Larry Sellers | ||

i got an idea - cabellas in owatonna has the prettiest new hi wall from ballard in 300 H&H for only 8000. You could buy it and then when you'd rather have a bolt, sell it to me for half price so i could afford it | |||

I went with a M70 and had it rebarreled to a .300 H&H It's worked great for about 7 years now. Anther option and I've always' thought this would be soo nice would be to buy a Ruger 1A (light sporter) in .30-06 and have it rechambered to .300 H&H. I don't think it would be a huge under taking  -------------------------------------------- Well, other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play? | |||

I know this is a silly answer, but why not just order one from CZ? Rich Buff Killer | |||

Even worse, why not just use a .300 Win Mag? More ammo out there, cheaper to shoot, shoots really well and hard. | |||

Rich, Must admit this is an option I am considering. Haven't heard back from you on the .404, any interest? Larry Sellers

How about re-barreling a 7mm Mag to 300 Ruger? ________________________ "Every country has the government it deserves." - Joseph de Maistre | |||

i picked up a gorgeous 300 H&H in a supergrade m70 a couple months ago for $1400...its got a griffin & howe quick detach side mount scope on it with a lyman alaskan.... serial number range puts it about 1949....barrel is marked .300 mag, winchester changed that to .300 h&h in 1951 (i think)....this rifle has alaska or africa plains game written all over it...these rifles are out there, just gotta find them... for me, it was love at first sight!!!!... go big or go home ........

I just last week bought a 1951 vintage Model 70 in 300 H&H. It needs a rear sight but I am kind of excited about getting to shoot it. I got it to complement my M-70 .375 H&H to take as a pair to Africa when I go again. | |||

There is a brand new Ruger 1-H in .300 H&H sitting on the rack in my local gunshop. It's one of their current five gun set of so-called African rifles. I bought the .450-400 NE of the set. I believe there is a 7x57mm and .470 yet to come. LLS | |||

Larry, I assume you already know the attributes of both 300 WM and 300 H&H. If you have to explain why you want the H&H over the WM, then most wouldn't understand the intangible benefits of owning a classic cartridge over one that is more readily available and rather mundane in comparison.

it's the same thing as owning a Harley-Davidson instead of a honda goldwing. My plan is to get one from CZ by fall or early winter. Rich Kill them with style... | |||

Rem M-700 magnums (7mm rem mag etc) will handle the .300 H&H....but rebarreling is in order! I see M-721s in .300 H&H on occasion....not a bad rifle....I sure like mine!~ Cabela's in Syndey had one the other day! /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."

Yes Dr., spoken like a true intangible benefits lover. I also have a 375 H & H instead of a .375 Ruger, and a 9.3 X 62, 9.3 X 74R and on and on. Maybe the same applies to these choices as well, huh? Larry Sellers SCI Life Member

Well, my thinking was to boiling it down to not buying a rifle at all and just buying your meat at the grocery store.  Here is the one I mentioned above. Just for inspiration. 300 H&H on a M70 Classic. It started life as a 7Mag  Terry -------------------------------------------- Well, other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play? | |||
