.300 Ultra Mag Cartridge From Remington Arms Co - Brief Article

Guns Magazine, April, 1999

Remington introduces the .300 Ultra Mag, a powerful, flat-shooting big game cartridge. The .300 Ultra Mag, loaded with a 180-grain Nosier Partition bullet, delivers a muzzle velocity of 3,300 fps from a 26-inch barrel. Its retained energy of 2,145 ft./lbs. at 500 yards will drop an elk with proper bullet placement.

Sighting in a .300 Ultra Mag just two inches high at 100 yards will deliver the bullet less than three inches low at 300 yards.
