Unfortunately, I'd have to agree with the others. I've always wanted a 300 H & H. I was going to ream out a Ruger No 1 in 30-06, mainly because I couldn't easily find a bolt action long enough to feed that long case, it can be done with some factory actions, but does require a lot of metal removal.

Even over here, finding brass for a 300 H & H isn't easy , its availability is very hit and miss.

I'm not trying to rain on your parade, but a 300 WM or 300 WSM are excellent cartridges as are the other calibres mentioned above and are readily available.

That being said, if I came across British built sporter in 300 H & H I'd buy it in a heartbeat, they are very very cool. I'd worry about brass afterwards.

I guess it boils down to how bad do you want a 300 H & H

A year or two ago Ruger made a limited run of #1B's in 300 H&H MAG as well as an earlier run of #1S's . At the moment I own Ruger #1B's in 300 WIN MAG and 300 Weatherby MAG but I have wanted a 300 H&H MAG in a #1 for quite awhile .

In the whole scheme of things as far as I'm concerned velocity wise the 300 H&H MAG falls about halfway between the 30-06 and 300 WIN MAG .

There were a goodly number or Winchester Pre 64 Model 70's built at the factory as 300 H&H target guns !
