    Superb video on the comparison of these two rounds. Beautiful rifles.
    Always wanted a 300 H&&H rifle just to have one; do not have one due to cost and scarcity of ammunition and rifles in that round.

      I use almost exclusively factory loaded 180gr Nosler accubond bullets, which seem to be OK on availability. Thanks for watching !

    So happy to see a man that no how to operate a bolt. I see so many new shooters that have no idea how to operate a bolt rifle. I must be an old guy lol

      I guess I missed that part. He took the rifle off his shoulder to cycle the bolt. Not good and I too am old.

    The 375 is my favorite for jack rabbits. 1 Shot and I've cut my eye and my shoulder is black and blue.

    Cat like reflexes avoiding getting scoped... the first time I shot my dad's 300 I split my eyebrow wide open... I'm not sure if I've ever overcome the scope flinch and tend to stay back a little too far...

    Very very nice . I am squeamish to recoil , but a .375 H&H would be a dream rifle .

    • @oldcolonialtreasures114
      @oldcolonialtreasures114  Před 2 lety +1

      The recoil on the 375 is actually not that significant, with the .400 class calibers if the rifle is light it is a different story - thanks for watching

  • @craigleibbrand7761
    @craigleibbrand7761 Před rokem +4

    Old Timers say the 220 grain bullet is what made the reputation of the 300 H and H in Africa. The 200gr. Spitzer is ideal. The PH said if you go down to the 180 gr. Might as will use a 30-06. The extra velocity in the 300 will do you no good.

    • @micahtroyer4181
      @micahtroyer4181 Před rokem +2

      I reload all my 300H&H with a 220 grain, with imr 4831 works out great

      I was shooting 180 gr Nosler Accubond in the 300H&H and 300gr Federal softs in the 375 H&H - both commercial loads

    Fantastic video! Do you have any .318 westley richards rifles to review?

    • @oldcolonialtreasures114
      @oldcolonialtreasures114  Před 2 lety +2

      Yes, there is a .318 WR built on a FN Mauser action, in the works, but it may take a while for me to get the video done and posted. Thanks for looking.

    If I could go back 50 years, I'd own a 257 Roberts in a pre-'64 Winchester Model 70, and a 300 H&H Magnum in a Remington Model 700. What else does a Montana hillbilly need?

    I saw Rhino is making more and better bullets now again. The 380 .375 is back aswell as the rest of them.
