Weatherby 300 WBY 200 Grains Hornady ELDX 20 Rounds Ammunition
By far the most popular and versatile Weatherby cartridge available. The 300 Weatherby Magnum had the flattest trajectory longest range and the greatest killing power of any 300 magnum on the market until the 30-378 Weatherby Magnum came along. Based on the 300 H&H Magnum the 300 Weatherby delivers 300 more fps than its British cousin. Introduced in 1944 this is the all-around cartridge for the big game hunter.

The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
The 300 Weatherby Magnum was wildcatted by Roy Weatherby in 1944 and was among his initial cartridges when he went into production in 1945. The 300 Weatherby Magnum remains the flagship of the Weatherby line, the most popular of the Weatherby Magnums. It is based on the 300 H&H case blown out, retaining the full (2.85-inch) case length and adding Weatherby's distinctive "double Venturi" shoulder. It is thus just one of numerous "improved" versions of the 300 H&H, but easily the most popular and the only one readily available in factory form. The 300 Weatherby Magnum is fast, flat-shooting, and powerful, and has been the choice of many serious globe-trotting hunters since its inception. Factory loads are available from Federal, Hornady, and Remington as well as Weatherby. Weatherby factory loads include: 150-grain bullet at 3540 feet per second; 165-grain bullet at 3390; and 180-grain bullet at 3240. —
