MAIN300 Ham'r Die

Redding Reloading Equipment has added a New 3-Die Set for the 300 HAM'R—a bottleneck cartridge based on a modified .223 Remington case necked up to 30-caliber. Using a 1.603-inch case, the Ham'r is able to produce near-.308 Winchester effectiveness with very moderate recoil, and is available in numerous actions including the ever-popular modern sporting rifle platform. Thanks to these qualities, the 300 HAM’R cartridge will be equally at home in the field or on the range.

Redding continues to add cartridges to it standard product lines as consumer demand and industry support grows, and continues to produce truly “Custom” die sets as well. The Engineering Group at Redding requires only a chamber reamer drawing or 5 fired cases from the firearm in question to quote the production of dies for virtually any caliber and firearm. Prices are quoted on an individual basis depending upon the complexity of the chambering and any need for tooling. Those seeking dies for a truly unique or obsolete cartridge should contact the Redding Custom Die Center in the company’s Engineering Department. E-Mail: [email protected].

Behind the Bullet: The .308 Norma Magnum

Norma’s ballistician Nils Kvale saw the wisdom of having the velocity and horsepower of the .300 H&H Magnum, but in a shorter, more affordable receiver, and used the H&H case to develop his .358 Norma Magnum in 1959 as well as the .308 Norma Magnum one year later. The .308 Norma Magnum closely resembles the wildcat .30-338 cartridge, though the shoulder of the former is located a bit more toward the base than that of the .308 Norma Magnum. Intrigued?
