    300 Bee fit in 110 action?


    Does a stock 110 allow for the chambering of the 300 Bee?

    Depends was the stock 110 chambered for 300 Bee?

    Okay sorry but I am weak and I just can't resist....

    I can't find any info on the 300 Bee do you have any dimensions you could share?

    I'm thinking he's abbreviating for 300 Weatherby. If that's the case then yest the 110 action will handle it but only as a single shot unless you have a RUM action or 375 H&H action where the magazine cutout is longer. You can modify a standard 110 cutout but it's a lot of work. Now the new centerfeed actions have a cutout long enough for it to feed but the magazine box is still too short. I would think you could cut a notch out in the front of the magazine box and get it to feed that way.

    Ah - I was thinking the 218 Bee necked up (was going to ask "why not just put .308 diameter bullets in 32-20 brass?").

    I was kinda wondering what a .300 Bee was too.
    It's better to shoot for the moon and hit the fencepost than to shoot for the fencepost and hit the ground!

    The reason I said Weatherby was because I have heard it called a bee for short a few times although I've mostly heard abbreviated as the 300 Roy. Maybe the OP will chime in and clarify.

    Sorry for the confusiion there gents.

    Roy... Ahem... Weatherby it is!

    The answer adds intrigue to the 30- or 338-375 Ruger cartidges which would seem like a great way to get the most out of the available space...?
