My pre64 actually feeds smoother cycling rounds from the mag than cycing empty. How it happens, I cant tell you.
My 300 H&H is a plain old Remington 721 bought about 1971.
Its starting to show its hunting scars and has always been superbly accurate.
As for brass prices I have a lifetime supply of Winchester, Norma and Remington brass for the old girl.

I've have a 1959 browning safari grade on a FN mauser action in 300H&H and she is just a beauty to shoot. She feeds and cycles like a dream and groups very well with factory hornady rounds. I lucked out this past summer picking up 500+ mixed brass of winchester, remington and norma. I should be set for a while.
.........or a post 64.I too would like one. Looks like that long taper cartridge would feed like butter in a pre64 m70.
There was a .300 H&H Browning FN Mauser at the Saskatoon show this weekend and an unfired .375 H&H as well. Beautiful rifles but pricey.
I wouldn't mind a .300 H&H of some sort to go with my CZ550 375 H&H. It's a pair I've always wanted. I actually had a partially converted P14 in .300 H&H at one time but sold it due to the amount of work it needed to finish the build.
I'm thinking that since my 300 is a pre-64 that the matching rifle should be a pre-64 as well. It's just natural...right?

Can I ask what the asking price was on those two?
Thank goodness for Supercub giving up his whole stash of new brass a few years back. That plus what I have dug up at gun shows here and there, I have about 500 new Winchester and Remington brass left in the stash.
Very little if you have a magnum bolt model. Remove the spacer from the magazine box and sweet the follower for the full-length one and you're set. You'll have to modify the ejector and square up the rear of the feed rails to allow the cartridges to sit tight to the feed rails. If you look at the rear of the rails you'd see that they are radiused, likely due to the too,ingredients used to cut the opening in the bottom of the action. Then get a barrel screwed into it and you're logging.
something to remember as one that offered them on first come first serve .....
