Hornady .300 Savage Brass – 50 Count

The .300 Savage is a historically significant cartridge, serving as the starting point for the U.S. military’s 7.62×51 round, which evolved into the widely known .308 Winchester. This vintage yet capable round was introduced in 1920 for Savage’s Model 99 lever rifle. The .300 Savage was developed to offer enhanced performance over the earlier .303 Savage chambering while maintaining compatibility with the Model 99’s shorter action.

History & Design of the .300 Savage

• The .300 Savage has the same case head dimensions as the .30-06, but its overall length is 2.600 inches, compared to 3.340 inches for the .30-06.
• The case features a sharper shoulder and a short neck to maximize case capacity, holding approximately 25% less propellant than the .30-06.
• The .300 Savage is very similar to the .308 Winchester, with the .308 being the commercial version of the 7.62×51 military cartridge introduced in the 1950s.

Though the .308 Winchester eventually gained popularity with hunters, the .300 Savage remains an important piece of history in the development of military and commercial ammunition.
