“.300 h&h magnum”

In this month's Head to Head, Phil Massaro breaks down the differences between these two .30-caliber favorites.

Named for the antagonist in the medieval classic Beowulf, the 6.5 Grendel certainly delivers a performance level which belies the cartridge’s image.

Having celebrated its 100^th birthday in 2020, the .300 Savage remains a sound choice as a big-game cartridge—especially in the woods of the Eastern United States.

The .400 H&H Magnum is the most popular of the more obscure Holland & Holland cartridge offerings, and for a number of good reasons.

Introduced in 1955, the .358 Winchester shares a good number of the dimensional attributes of the .308 Winchester, including the .473-inch-diameter case head, a case length of 2.018 inches and the 20-degree shoulder which is used for headspacing.

A rimless designed made for use in the Mauser-style rifles, the .318 Westley Richards was released sometime between 1906 and 1910, and became one of the most popular medium-bore cartridges for hunting African game.

How did a cartridge developed for an autoloading rifle come to be one of our most revered lever-action cartridges? We take a closer a look at the .35 Remington.

Some of the 21^st century developments in big-game bullets are stellar, but there are many classic designs that have not gone out of favor.

Generating just over 3,200 ft.-lbs. of muzzle energy, the .405 Winchester was—at the time of its release in 1904—the most powerful lever-action cartridge available.
