ho,
Opened to 0.423" it's called the 425Express. A semi-wildcat which I believe was chambered for by Savage at one point. Pretty much identical to a 416Taylor in ballistics ... 400gr at 2380fps give or take a little.
Cheers...
Con

Yes, I believe it can since the 300 fits in the standard length action. Lou
